The design was one- group pretest-posttest design where there was only one group as the experimental class. The study was done in SMPN 1 Dente Teladas Grade VII, consisting of 32 students. There was a total of six meetings, which were 1 meeting for pretest, 4 meetings for the treatment, and 1 meeting for the posttest. The data were collected from a writing test and analyzed using Paired Sample t-Test in SPSS v.25. The result shows that 1) the guided writing technique based on project-based learning could improve the students’ descriptive text writing since p-value (Sig. 2-tailed) is .000 which is smaller than 0.05, and 2) format and content is the most improved aspect of writing with 9.94 score gain or 24.85%. In conclusion, the use of guided writing technique is maximized when it is used based on project-based learning, and applying the guided writing technique based on project-based learning is able to cover the weakness that the guided writing technique has.
