This article presents the research results which are: (1) there is a significant difference in grammar mastery between students taught using Inductive Method and students taught using Deductive Method; (2) Inductive Method is more effective than Deductive Method. The research method used in this research is an experimental design. This research was conducted at SMP Negeri in Surakarta in the academic year of 2017/2018. The research population is the eighth-grade students. The samples are class VIII A as the experimental group consisting 28 students and class VIII B as the control group consisting 28 students. The research instrument used to collect the data is a test. The data were analyzed by using t-test formula. The computation of the t-test shows that t observation (t o ) = 2.284 is higher than t table (54. 0.05) = 2.0048. It can be concluded that there is a significant difference in grammar mastery between the students taught using Inductive Method and the students taught using Deductive Method.
