It also examined how well the students could use adverbs in their writing. This study's methodology combined a correlational approach with pre-experimental techniques. The findings demonstrated that students had an excellent grasp of adverbs, as seen by the mean value of their scores as well as their writing scores on the pre- and post-tests.
