Therefore this research is designed to improve the students reading comprehension through the use of PQRST (Preview Question Read Self-recite/Summarize and Test) strategy. The PQRST activity follows the procedure of preview question read sel-recite/summarize and test. The research employed a collaborative classroom action research design in which the researcher and the collaborative teacher worked together in preparing a suitable procedure of PQRST strategy designing the lesson plan determining the criteria of success implementing the action observing and doing reflections. The subjects of this research were 32 eleventh graders of MA Nurul Jadid Paiton Probolinggo East Java in the academic year 2010/2011.

The data of this research were obtained through (1) observation sheet to obtain information about teacher s and the students activities and performance during the implementation of the PQRST strategy (2) field notes to note the data beyond the coverage of the observation sheet and (3) test to identify whether or not the students make progress in reading comprehension. The results show that the implementation of PQRST strategy in the teaching-learning of reading comprehension can improve the students comprehension skill. It can be identified that after the implementation of the action there was an improvement on the number of students who got the score of greater or equal to 75. In Cycle 1 18 students out of 32 students or 56.25% had fulfilled the criteria of success. In Cycle 2 26 out of 32 students or 81.25% got the score of greater or equal to 75.
