Hypothesis Testing RESEARCH METHOD

5.2 Suggestions

Referring to the conclusion above, the writer would like to propose some suggestions as follows: 1. English teachers are recommended to apply DRTA Strategy as one of the ways in teaching reading comprehension of narrative text because it can help the students in comprehending the text easier in terms, in content, in vocabulary, finding the specific information, reference, inference, determining the main idea. 2. English teachers are suggested to apply this strategy when discussing a new topic, which is never discussed before. 3. English teachers are suggested to have creativity when they conduct teaching and learning so the students will be more interested in the lesson. For example when students could make a sentence only by seeing a picture shown by the researcher. Teachers must prepare instructional media such as pictures. So, will facilitate the learning process in the class. BIBLIOGRAPHY Arikunto, S. 1997. Dasar-dasar Evaluasi Pendidikan. Jakarta: BinaAksara. Almasi, J. 2003. Teaching Strategies Processes in Reading.
