In learning, first of all the students are demanded to master language components before. One of them is grammar which consists of many items. Therefore, the students take along time to learn it. The students of MAS YPUI Teratak have been taught English four hours a week and that is also added six semester in Junior High. But in the fact, the result of their grammar still far from willingness that is wised by Curriculum it-self, especially in simple past tense. The students do not master using adverb of time, verbal and nominal form and using verb correctly when they must use verb I (infinitive) and when they must use verb II ( regular or irregular verbs) in simple past tense. The subject of this research was the first year of MAS YPUI Teratak, while the object of this research is the mastery of simple past tense at the first year of MAS YPUI Teratak. The total number of the first year of MAS YPUI Teratak was 32 persons.
