The sample of the present study involved 17 students as the experimental group. Students’ document tests were used to obtain the data. Based on the statistical result, after indirect teacher feedback was implemented on students’ writing recount text especially personal recount text, the t-observed value was higher than t-table value; thereby, the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected and the alternative hypotheses (H1) was accepted. Thus, the use of indirect teacher feedback is effective in reducing students’ grammatical errors in writing personal recount text. In addition, from the analysis content of students’ document tests, verb tense indicated significant progress in error reduction.
