Introduction
Writing is one of activities where someone can express their idea, feeling, emotion in written form to communicate with another people without oral. Because through writing, people may express their idea freely without having to face with the reader or other people. In other words, when they write their ideas and emotions creatively, they are communicating on paper in their best way.
According to Hurvart Jozsef, writing is the most complex human among activities, because writing involves the development of a design idea, the capture of mental representation of knowledge and experience with the subject". From this statement, it can be concluded that writing refers to a process in which its activities are not produced immediately. Therefore, writing is one of language skill that should be mastered by the students besides other skills like listening, speaking, and reading. And as we know, in this era we can communicate with another people in other country by English writing for any purposes by using Social media such as facebook, instagram, email and another Social media.
It proves the reason of why writing is important should be mastered by students.
Writing has been taught from elementary school level to university. However, some students in Indonesia consider that writing is the most difficult skill to be mastered by them.
It is strengthened by Byrne statement that writing is difficult activity for most people, both in the mother tongue and in a foreign language''. Many students in junior high school think writing is difficult to do. Because, as a student foreign language they are emphasized to write well and with good structure. While as a student foreign language, they are still difficult to express their idea and opinions. Beside that, they do not know how the way to start write.
There are many techniques can be used to increase student writing skill and the one is guided questions.
Guided question is technique where the teacher give some questions to the student related the topic and they will answer the question. The students will begin to write following their answer. It makes the student easier to write what they want to write.

Method
Pre-experimental design with pre-test and post-test design is applied in this study. The students did the pre-test, got treatment and did post-test. It aimed to know whether the Guided Question technique can increase the students' writing The location has been conducted at SMPN 1 Parepare. This study focused at the second grade students of SMPN 1 Parepare in academic year 2019/2020.
The data was collected through the test that have been analyzed by using quantitative analysis employed calculation to test the hypothesis. This quantitative analysis employed statically calculation to test the hypothesis. The last process is testing hypothesis which the test of significant 0,05 levels significances with this criteria of hypothesis testing : 1. If t-test < t-tabble, H 0 = There is no significant effect of guided question to enhance student's writing skill. 2. If t-test > t-tabble, H 0 = There is significant effect of guided question to enhance student's writing skill.

Result
Writing test which is applied in pretest and posttest to answer the problems in this study. There is some result of the study: The data showed that the mean score of the pre-test was 58.09 (X 1 ) while the mean score of the post-test increased 75.19 (X 2 ). The standard deviation of pre-test was 7.6 (SD) while the standard deviation of the post-test was 6.69 (SD). classification and 3 (9.37%) student got fair classification. The percentage in post-test that students got very good classification was higher than percentage in pre-test. It means that students got improvement in their writing skill after did the treatment and it proved that guided question was effective to enhance the students' writing skill. Furthermore, it was the students' score achievement in writing skill after being taught by using guided question. In addition, the number of students who gained the highest total score increased and the result of post-test showed that no students got poor and very poor classification. The data above showed that t-test is higher than t-table (11.54 ≥ 1.6955). thus, it can be concluded that the students' writing skill in writing paragraph through Guided questions in significant 5% is better after getting the treatment. So, the null hypothesis (H 0 ) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (H a ) is accepted.

Discussion
