INTRODUCTION
The low studentsA competence in terms of constructing an English writing report text is indicated by the low result of studentsA sheet of the second grade of science class of SMAN 3 Lembar in academic year 2020/2021.
The low value of studentsA sheet on writing is caused by the low competence of studentsA rhetoric and grammar, and most of them get trouble in constructing the generic structure such as general classification, description and function.
Since, rhetoric competence is embedded to studentsA competence in constructing an English idea, meaning, and communication skill.
In this particular study researcher focused on developing students Arhetoric competence and grammar by using Grammarly Chrome.

written feedback instructional strategy develop for improving accuracy based on practice research and theory formative feedback has moderate to strong positive effect in many disciplines, and negative feedback that draws attention to linguistic for many play a meaningful role in L2 language development.
Because of feedback has a positive strong to improve in variety of discipline in L2 language development, researcher assumed that Grammarly chrome is an appropriate way to develop studentsA rhetoric and grammar in terms of learning an English writing text.
In teaching and learning process feedback is needed by whoever follows the class learning.
Emily Daw explained Students who understand rhetoric have an easier time explaining their ideas through writing.
Rhetoric and composition are branches of study that deal with the effective use of words and persuasion.
The two words are occasionally used interchangeably, but there are some differences in the emphases of the two disciplines.
Composition deals almost exclusively with the written word, while rhetoric refers to persuasion in other contexts as well.
Both rhetoric and composition are also considered rhetorical devices, which deal with persuasion in speech or writing.
Rhetoric is persuasive That is, it is any form of speech or writing that is intended to convince an audience of a particular point of view rather than to simply convey information.
The principles of rhetoric were codified by AristotleAs and other Greek philosophers in ancient times.
These principles are still followed by modern speakers in the fields of speech and debate.
In a broader sense, rhetoric can refer to the effective use of language in any form of discourse (Zalta, 2.
Thus, the terms of "rhetoric" dates back to ancient Greece, where it referred to the study or art of oration, or persuasive public speaking.
Aristotle, who is considered the father of rhetoric, divided the study into what are known as the five canons of rhetoric: invention, arrangement, style, memorization and Students of rhetoric in Greece would be taught the most effective ways of persuading their audiences by these means (Zalta, 2.
The problem of studentsA competence in constructing an English writing of the report text is experienced not only by students of SMAN 3 Lembar but also most of students of senior high school at the same level as well.
And one of solution that researcher offers to overcome the problem is AGrammarly Chrome ApplicationA to support students conduct the duty of an English writing text.
This application will control every word, phrase or paragraph in terms of English document and it will control the mistake or error with the red underline sign automatically.
This application is not only shows the error but the properly suggestion as well, so the sentence will be complete meaning.
Aristotle's Rhetoric has had an enormous influence on the development of the art of rhetoric.
Not only authors writing in the peripatetic tradition, but also the famous Roman teachers of rhetoric, such as Cicero Online at https://journal.

and Quintilian, frequently used elements stemming from the Aristotelian doctrine.
Nevertheless, these authors were interested neither in an authentic interpretation of the Aristotelian works nor in the philosophical sources and backgrounds of the vocabulary that Aristotle had introduced to rhetorical Thus, for two millennia the interpretation of Aristotelian rhetoric has become a matter of the history of rhetoric (Zalta, 2.
Since, experts define rhetoric is concerning with someone Acompetence in using an appropriate word to convey the factual object, in this study researcher intents to explore the effectiveness of using Grammarly Chrome to increase studentsA rhetoric competence.
In my view when students are able to choose an appropriate word in context of communication in terms of speaking and written in order to make audiences understand the meaning, it means that they have configured the good rhetoric Meanwhile, when they are not able to convey their thinking, ideas, argument and desire in terms of speaking and written, it means they have low rhetoric competence.
In addition.

classified There are five purposes of rhetoric such as:

In doing the task every student is being available with one laptop/one student, that is connect to internet, students study online make sure the application has been installed.
It link to the face book, email, instagram so that students are able to send the task into the researcherAs email.
With the help of Grammarly Chrome students are supposed would able to increase studentsA competence to construct the report text writing.
Beside that students would enjoy learning.

The task are given by the teacher in constructing an English writing of the report text in a variety of situation are used as instrument test for measuring learnersA rhetoric and grammar competence.
This study uses two cycles consisting of four research steps, namely: Planning.
Action, and Reflection.
This type of research is classroom action research (CAR).
This classroom action research was conducted based on the author's experience during the teaching and learning process in the real class of the second grade of science class SMAN 3 Lembar, it is believed by the researcher that report text learning method using the Grammarly chrome application can improve students' rhetorical and grammatical ability.
To obtain the data needed, students are asked to construct various report texts after getting the information in terms of how to use grammarly chrome application, after doing the task, then studentsA worksheet being submitted and analysed students are asking to check and recheck their work in order to find out errors, then students as soon as possible correct it.
This approach will have components similar to other types of research- that is, posing question, collecting data, and then analysing and interpreting those data.
However, it is differentiated by the fact that it will be carried out by practitioners investigating their own professional context (David Nunan, 2.
In constructing the text students constant follow the generic structure of report text, namely:
General classification This field provides general statements about objects that will be discussed further in the text.
Thus the reader will be easier to understand the details of the object.
Description This section tells about a detailed description of the object being discussed.
specification of the previous section of general classification.
Besides that, the objects, phenomena or things mentioned in the first section will be explained in this section In this study, students were assigned to compose the product-based of the report texts with the help of Agrammarly chromeA application to improve rhetorical and grammatical competence.
The results of student work sheet will be analyzed based on rhetorical skills and the appropriate grammar.
This study, the researcher focused on students' rhetoric skill and grammarA competence.
