This action research aims to improve the students’ abilities in writing descriptive texts by employing the peer feedback technique in the teachinglearning process. 31 students of class VII D of SMP N 1 Mlati participated in this research. The action research was conducted in two cycles which consisted of three meeting for each cycle. The data were obtained by interviewing the students of class VII D of SMP N 1 Mlati, holding discussions with the English teacher and a collaborator, and doing class observation and documentation in the teaching and learning process. The instruments for collecting the data were observation sheet, interview guidelines, and questionnaires. The data obtained from observations and interviews were analyzed qualitatively. The data obtained from the students’ writing during the research were analyzed by using a writing rubric collaboratively with the collaborator. The criteria of validity and reliability were also fulfilled in this research. The results show the students’ improvement after learning writing descriptive texts by using peer-feedback technique. It is proved by the mean score of the students’ writing in the post-test (78,40), which is higher than that in the pre-test (54,84). These achievements prove that the implementation of peer feedback technique can improve the students' abilities in writing descriptive texts.
