In language learning, reading is crucial for acquiring knowledge and seeking information. Nonetheless, some students may encounter difficulties when it comes to comprehending written texts.

This study focuses on implementing the STT in teaching reading recount text to eighth graders and assesses students' responses to the technique and its impact on their comprehension. This research was conducted descriptively using qualitative design. While collecting data, the researchers did an observation, gave the students two tasks, and interviewed them. The instruments to collect the data are observation checklist notes and interviews. The findings indicate a successful implementation of the technique, with students showing a high level of understanding and expressing ease in comprehending the text.
