A purposeful sampling with consist of 32 tenth grade students from class X-10 at SMAN 1 Kademangan Blitar was the sample used for this research. Several procedures were conducted during this experiment such as administrating a tryout test at SMAN 1 Srengat Blitar, followed by a pretest, giving out the treatment, and providing a posttest exam at SMAN 1 Kademangan Blitar. The results of the experiments would then be measured and analyzed using SPSS 26 to measure the effectiveness of the treatment. The data analysis showed several results in different versions. Firstly, an improvement in mean value from 72.67 at pretest to 88.39 at posttest showed the first step of enhancement. Afterwards, the data were then calculated and analyzed by measuring it’s paired sample t-test and by indicating the significance of Tvalue and Ttable, the result of the analyzation showed that the Tvalue (10.524) was greater than Ttable (2.052). And finally, the significance of the experiment were smaller than the two-tailed significance (0.00 < 0.5).
