It indicates that in writing, the writer should master the use of grammar, generic structure, and vocabulary to make the reader understand about what the writer writes. Students got the information that the generic structure of a narrative text consists of orientation, complication, and resolution. To the students, writing was very boring thus they considered that writing narrative text was a complicated, confusing and boring activity. The teacher also found it hard to teach writing skills. Some students also argued that they did not have enough vocabulary and limited knowledge on grammar. Consequently, the teachers who taught English writing in class need more effort and various techniques in teaching writing especially narrative text. Thus, the researchers offered a good media that had to be applied in the learning process of writing narrative text. The media is a cubing method.

Teachers are advised to know the learning styles of students first by giving a learning style questionnaire to students so the teacher can teach using a teaching method that suits the student's learning style.</em></p> Firda Annisa Sukmayani, Yunik Susanti, Diani Nurhajati Copyright (c) 2023 Firda Annisa Sukmayani, Yunik Susanti, Diani Nurhajati https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://proceeding.unpkediri.ac.id/index.php/eltt/article/view/4223 Mon, 09 Oct 2023 00:00:00 +0700 The Implementation of Skimming and Scanning Strategies in Reading Comprehension Class of The First Year Student of English Department University of Nusantara PGRI Kediri https://proceeding.unpkediri.ac.id/index.php/eltt/article/view/4225 <p><em>Language proficiency is crucial for efficient communication and success in learning activities, including English language education. Mastering four linguistic abilities, including listening, speaking, reading, and writing, is essential for students. Reading is a preductive learning process that involves mentally repeating, spelling, pronouncing, guessing, and understanding meaning. Skimming and scanning strategies, such as scanning and skimming, can help students improve their comprehension and self-assurance. These strategies can reduce the speed at which they read, making them essential for success in the English language. A study at the University of Nusantara PGRI Kediri investigated skimming and scanning strategies in first-year students' reading courses. Descriptive methodologies were used to study individuals' experiences, behaviors, interactions, and social situations. Data was collected from first-year students taught strategic skimming and scanning in reading courses. The study aimed to promote student literacy and learning by building reading abilities. A questionnaire was conducted with 51 responses from students on the implementation of skimming and scanning strategies in reading comprehension. Most students were able to use these strategies, such as searching for relevant keywords and reading quickly from sentence to sentence. However, some students were unsure about their comprehension and application of these strategies. The study found that English language education students use skimming and scanning strategies in reading, saving time by quickly finding information in books, articles, or newspapers. Students can read important phrases and words quickly, with a reading speed twice that of general reading. Questionnaires serve as indicators of these strategies. Students should better understand these strategies, lecturers should be more in-depth, and researchers should further develop these theories to improve their use in reading activities</em><em>.</em></p> Indra Putra Prihadi, Khoiriyah, Suhartono Suhartono Copyright (c) 2023 Indra Putra Prihadi, Khoiriyah, Suhartono https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://proceeding.unpkediri.ac.id/index.php/eltt/article/view/4225 Mon, 09 Oct 2023 00:00:00 +0700 The Effect of Team Game Tournament (TGT) in Teaching Reading of Narrative Text to The First Semester at The Nurse Program of Health Sciences Faculty of Kadiri University https://proceeding.unpkediri.ac.id/index.php/eltt/article/view/4226 <p><em>Reading is one of four language skills.
