The purpose of this research were: 1) to know the students‟ ability in writing analytical exposition before being taught by Think-Talk-Write (TTW) strategy, 2) to know the students‟ ability in writing analytical exposition after being taught by Think-Talk-Write (TTW) strategy, 3) to know there is significant difference of the students‟ ability in writing analytical exposition before and after being taught by Think-Talk-Write (TTW) strategy. The research design in this research is pre-experimental research that uses one group pretest and posttest design in quantitative approach. The population of this research was all of second graders students of MAN Trenggalek. The sample was XI IPS 1 class consisting of 30 students.
