Abstract

This paper aims to see the effectiveness of the using strategy of the SOAPS to improve the reading comprehension of second-grade students at Satria Makassar High School in the academic year 2018/2019. This study used a pre-experimental procedure consisting of 20 students in one class. Researchers applied test reading material consisting of 30 multiple-choice items. The conclusions indicate that there are significant differences in student achievement in reading comprehension, where the post-test average score is higher than the pre-test (71.30> 51.55) based on the findings of this study.
