This study triedto describe GBA application in the class, to know how Grammarly and GBA led to students’ writing recount text, and to know students’ perception in utilizing Grammarly in GBA in writing recount text. This study employed pre-experimental design one group pretest-post test (Creswell, 2008: 301). Data in this study were obtained from questionnaires and pretest-post test. Data from questionnaires, to describe the second and the third question, were analyzed by using Likert Scales and categorized into three categories: Positive, Neutral, and Negative as suggested by (Azwar, 2012: 149). Data from pretest-post test, to know the improvement of the students’ writing recount text were administered by using Match T-test.
