This study aims to increase the vocabulary mastery of ESP students by using Pictionary Game in the Fashion study program at SMK Negeri 2 Pangkep. The research method applied in this research is qualitative: Classroom Action Research (CAR). Conducted in SMK Negeri 2 Pangkep in the academic year 2021/2022, this research involved 26 second-grade Fashion students as the sample. The treatment consisted of two cycles with three meetings each cycle. To collect the data, tests were used.
