The data of reading test are the scores of studentsâ reading test that was administered after having eight times treatments for each class. The researcher analyzes the data using t-test formula (SPSS for windows 17.0). Based on the result of data analysis, the research finding states that visual auditory kinesteticis more effective than direct instruction to teach reading for Junior High School students. Based on these research findings, it can be concluded that visual auditory kinesteticis an effective method to improve studentsâ reading ability. Ideally, visual auditory kinestetic has to be implemented in the class in order to achieve optimal result. By applying this method, the teachers have some roles.
