Abstract

The purpose of this study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the pre-questioning strategy in improving students’ reading comprehension achievement. The study was conducted due to students’ difficulties in understanding English texts, low motivation, and problems in identifying main ideas and specific information. This study used a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design, namely a nonequivalent control group design. The population consisted of all seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 44 Palembang. Two classes were selected as samples through random sampling, involving 86 students. Class VII.3 was the experimental group, and class VII.1 was the control group. The experimental group was taught using the pre-questioning strategy, while the control group was taught using conventional methods. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests and analyzed using SPSS. The results showed that the experimental group had a higher improvement than the control group. The mean score of the experimental group increased from 60.13 to 74.53, while the control group increased from 59.02 to 67.65. The independent sample t-test result showed a significance value of 0.027 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference between the two groups. In conclusion, the pre-questioning strategy was effective in improving students’ reading comprehension by helping them activate prior knowledge, focus better, and engage more actively in reading activities.
