<![CDATA[The purpose of this study was to ascertain whether junior high school students who received instruction using Choral Reading with Kingsoft Office outperformed those who received instruction using the Grammar Translation Method (GTM). This study employed a quasi-experimental approach, a type of quantitative research. The research subjects were second year students of SMPN 3 Sutojayan-Blitar academic year 2025-2026. There were two classes chosen, Class VIII-C is Group 1 as experimental group of 20 students taught using Choral Reading with Kingsoft Office and Group 2, Class VIII-D, consists of 20 students who are taught using GTM as a control group. To compute the data, the researchers employed ANCOVA. The results of the study showed that students who received instruction using the Choral Reading method outperformed those who received instruction using GTM in terms of accomplishment. This is demonstrated by the significant value, F (1.37) = F 5.144, P 0.029 < 0.05, which is less than 0.05. Furthermore, the students taught using GTM had a mean of 72.258, whereas the students taught using the Choral Reading approach had a higher mean of 76.442, according to the differences between the adjusted means for the two groups, which are displayed in the Estimated Marginal Means table. In conclusion, Choral Reading with Kingsoft Office shown to be more effective in teaching junior high school students to read, particularly descriptive texts.]]>
