For students, appropriate writing skills are required. Activities such as training for English teachers on approaches for teaching suitable and engaging writing skills to students are required. The Picture Word Inductive Model will be taught as a tool for practicing writing descriptive text abilities. This activity employs a participatory technique based on Kurt Lewin's theory, which stresses the target participants' active participation throughout the training process, from participating in training activities to completing training assignments. A total of 15 teachers from various agencies in Kabupaten Banjar participated in this community service project.
