liv Peer tutoring technique. The evaluation gave some benefits in deciding what
the researcher had to do in next cycle.
5. Revising the plan
Having conducted the reflection, the researcher made a revision of her plan. The revision was aimed to improve the condition that had not been successful
in the previous cycle. By revising the plan, it was hoped that the rest of the problems could be handled in the following cycle.
E. Techniques of Collecting Data
1. Test Written tests, Pretest and Post-test, are used to find out the students’
achievement in reading comprehension and to know the students’ reading comprehension before and after teaching reading using Peer tutoring technique.
The purpose of these tests is to figure out whether the students’ reading comprehension improves or not.
To get the instrument validation in Reading Comprehension test, the researcher applied internal validity and reliability as stated in Ngadiso 2006: 1-3.
The formula is as follows: a. Internal Validity

The interview is carried out to get information which covers the ideas about the usage of Peer tutoring technique and the strengths and weaknesses of the
implementation of Peer tutoring technique in teaching reading. The interview consists of personal perceptions, experiences, opinion, and ideas related to this
classroom action research. 3. Observation
In this research, the observation is done to cover the process of implementation of Peer tutoring technique in teaching reading. Classroom events
and interaction between teacher and students and among students in the classroom are observed by the researcher. In this research, the researcher is as the teacher
who teaches reading using Peer tutoring technique and also as the observer who observes the classroom activities while the implementation of Peer tutoring
technique is happening. The researcher also asks her collaborator to observe and make notes about teaching learning process. The collaborator helps the researcher
to observe, evaluate, and offer suggestions about the implementation of Peer tutoring technique in teaching reading.
4. Questionnaire The questionnaire is carried out to get information from the students about
their idea of the implementation of Peer tutoring technique in teaching reading and the strengths and weaknesses of this technique.
