It compared between the scores of pre-test (before implementing two stay two stray technique) and post-test (after implementing two stay two stray technique), while the qualitative data were analysed by using constant comparative method which consisted of comparing incidents applicable to each category, integrating categories into their properties, delimiting theory, and writing theory. The result of the research showed that: (1) two stay two stray technique can improve students’ reading competence, which covered: main idea, word meaning, referent word, explicitly stated information, and implicitly stated information. The improvement can also be seen from their results of post-test. The averages of the scores improved from cycle to cycle. The average score of pre-test was 57.019.
