Abstract

This study discusses the teaching reading of descriptive text using Classwide Peer Tutoring (CWPT). The objectives of the study are to find out whether CWPT is effective to teach reading skill and to analyze any significant difference in students’ reading achievement between students of control and experimental group. The population of the study was the eighth grade students of SJHS 2 Ajibarang and the sample was 60 students chosen by using non-random sampling. The result shows that the pre-test mean scores of the control and experimental group were 56.83 and 58.33 respectively, while the post-test mean scores of the control and experimental group were 72 and 82 respectively. The t-test score was 3.160. The critical value of t was 2.00 for α = 5% and df = 58. Since the t-test is higher than t-table (3.160>2.00), it means that the use of CWPT as a medium in teaching to improve students’ reading skill in descriptive text was significant and effective. It can also be concluded that there was a significant difference in the achievement between students in both groups. It is suggested that CWPT could be able to encourage the students to share their opinion in a peer tutoring group in teaching reading of descriptive text.
