Abstract
This research is descriptive research that aims to find out a good student’ learning strategies used in learning writing in non-formal education. This study used a qualitative descriptive method using several data collections in the form of interviews and questionnaires. The result of this research showed that a student almost used all the learning strategies proposed by Oxford (1990). A student used memory, cognitive, compensation, metacognitive strategies, effective strategies, and social strategies in learning writing. Based on the result of this research, the researcher concluded that a good student dominant used cognitive strategies and metacognitive strategies which were important to improve writing skill in learning writing. Based on the research results, it is recommended that other students studying in non-formal education be trained more aware of learning strategies, especially in writing learning. They must use appropriate language learning strategies more consciously and purposefully and often become more successful in developing writing skills.
