INTRODUCTION
In the teaching-learning process, especially in procedure text, the teacher certainly has various of teaching method to make the students comprehend more about the material. Besides that, students' strategies also plays an important role to achieve learning success because basically students themselves are involved in the learning process.
Every student should have learning strategies because the one who knows most about the ability to manage every material presented by teacher is themselves. Learning strategies are specific behaviours as though processes that students use to enhance their own L2 learning (Oxford 1990). Earlier than that, more definition were added which describe learning strategies as the special thoughts and behaviours that individuals use to help them comprehend, learn or retain new information (O'Malley & Chamot 1990).
Simply it is found that language learning strategies is what students think and act to accomplish a learning goal in learning process. They can select the activity based on their preference in order to make learning becomes more enjoyable. Moreover, applying learning strategies influence students in terms of their independency and where they learn how to manage their learning in such various ways. Language learning strategies are apply by language learners as a means to acquire, store, or recall by the learners and can also promote autonomy learning (O'Malley & Chamot 1990). This happened because language learning strategy indirectly guides the students to become active learners that can provide their own needs and choose their preference in learning.
According to Celce-Murcia (2001), English learning strategies consist of six main categories, they are: cognitive strategies, metacognitive strategies, memory strategies, compensatory strategies, affective strategies, and social strategies. These six categories are intentionally used and controlled by the learner themselves. A lot of researchers investigated about learning strategies, for example in SMAN 2 Jember (Santihastuti, Wahjuningsing, & Mega, 2019), the result reported that metacognitive strategies became the most frequently learning strategy used by the successful students in scale of high use, while the unsuccessful students were medium user of cognitive strategy.
While, in MAN Malang I (Inayah, 2007) reported that the high used learning strategy by the students in learning English is cognitive strategy. Learning English especially in writing procedure text with the strategies is very important to do, but it is known that in SMP Negeri 2 Banawa Selatan some students are good in writing procedure text and some students are not good in writing procedure text, therefore the researchers attracted to investigate learning strategies used by the students.
The result of this research is expected to give the information in an effort to get an effective strategy to improve students' achievement in writing procedure text. Beside that the teachers are expected to recognize learning strategies that used by the students and facilitate their students to develop their ability in writing procedure text.

Based on interview, it can be concluded that the subjects reason for using this strategy because the students want to success in writing procedure text through controlling their emotion and attitudes towards learning. When the students are able to control their emotions and attitudes, it also will give positive results in learning.
The fifth is compensatory strategy. In interview session, the subjects explain the reason for using this strategy which guess the meaning, use synonym, ask for friend help, and use gestures to indicate the meaning. Based on interview, it can be concluded 106 | e-Journal of ELTS | Vol. 9 No. 2 | May-Agustus 2021 | pp. 101-108 that the subject reason for using this strategy because it really helps them in overcoming limitations in writing and speaking. The most dominant used learning strategies by the subjects is cognitive strategies which take note about the important point in learning procedure text, summarize vocabulary that just find in learning procedure text, translate their procedure text first into bahasa Indonesia, and practice to write procedure text by paying attention to the social function, and generic structure. Majority of the subjects more frequently used this strategy among all of strategies in learning procedure text. Cognitive strategy engages students in learning process. This strategy varied and students can decide to use which one they want to use that make them easier. In addition, cognitive strategy combine newly learned information with previous ones. This finding was in line with the other previous studies (Inayah, 2007& Budiarti, 2012. Based on the observation to the students result in learning procedure text, some of them are successful and some of them are unsuccessful in writing procedure text using this strategy, it means that cognitive strategy is still does not works for the students.

DISCUSSION
Cognitive strategy has a significantly large effect for students. This strategy would be affective for all grades levels (Kim et al 2008). Cognitive strategy can promote micro-skills of writing which deal greatly with word, patterns, and meaning which work absolutely in the brain of the writer. The cognitive strategy, however, vary among learners as they may employ different language processing strategies (Cohen & Macaro, 2007). Thus, teacher should be aware of and understand about students' difference.
In fact there is no exact theories claim that certain strategies are superior, because there are a lot of researchers out there reported different results of strategies used by the students. However, every strategy stands to its own capability in managing

CONCLUSION
From the research, it can be concluded that learning strategies is one of the important factors that determine whether the students can be an effective learners and help them to become an ultimate success in writing procedure text. In writing procedure text, all the students used all the learning strategies such as cognitive strategy, metacognitive strategy, memory related strategy, compensatory strategy, affective strategy and social strategy. The most frequently used learning strategies by the subjects is cognitive strategies, the second is social strategies, third is memory strategies and metacognitive strategies, the forth is affective strategies, and the last is compensatory strategies. The reason of the students for using strategies because they want to write procedure text well. The result of this research only describes learning strategies in writing procedure text used by the students and the reasons of using those strategies.
Not specific analysis about factors influences the choice strategies among students due to the limitation of time to cover all details of students learning strategies. So, the future researchers can investigate it specifically.
