Finally, through all the calculated and analyzed data, and the significant score improvement in the experiment class during the post-test, the writer
draws a major conclusion that SQ3R method is effective for stu dents’ reading
comprehension which can be proven by the improvement of students’ achievement in reading after the method was given.
B. Suggestion
According to the result of the study, the writer would like to give some suggestions for people who are included in the educational scope:
1. This study hopefully can be an important educational implication for English language teachers and can contribute to deeper insights about the
ways to improve students’ reading comprehension, especially on longer English passage. It is also to provide teachers another way of effective
reading strategy. 2.
The teacher also expected to improve students’ comprehension in reading English passages through various reading methods, techniques, and
strategies. 3. Hopefully after knowing this method, students can apply this method to
comprehend any passage, whether it is English passage or other passage beyond English, especially longer passage, because they have already
know a new method to comprehend the text easier and hopefully they will be more motivated in learning English.
4. The result of this research can also be used as a guide for the writer, as a future teacher, and improve her knowledge about methods and techniques
to improve students’ comprehension in reading. For other researchers, this study could be used as a reference to carry out further research as a
contribution to the educational development.
