A. Introduction
Language is very important in our live. Through
language we can communicate to other people. School
as a formal institution to teach language for students
must choose the right strategy. And since language is
important in education , teachers method plays an
important role in channeling the information and
concepts of the language lessons the students. The right
method in teaching language, especially English that
makes a very enjoyable situation in the classroom can
produce an effective teching and learning.
Now a days, so many innovations and creations are
made by some education experts to improve the
teaching and learning quality, especially in English
classroom. One of the innovations is Quantum
Teaching and Quantum Learning. This method has
become popular recently. Since the method makes the
classroom more effective and the students enjoy the
lesson.
One of the strategies is Quantum Teaching.
Quantum Teaching shows teachers how to orchestrate
their students success by taking into account everything
in the classroom along with the environment, the design
of curriculum, and how it is presented. The result: a
highly-effective way to teach anything to anybody!
Available as an illustrated concept how-to book that
bridges the gap between theory and practice and that
covers todays hottest topics, like multiple
intellegences, this book provides specific, easy-tofollow guidlines for creating more-effective learning
environments, better ways to design curricula, and more
intersting ways to deliver content and facilitate the
learning process. Designed and written as an interactive
tool, Quantum Teaching includes the lesson planning
guidlines to help teachers cover all the bases, without
having to culminate different theories or refering to
different source of materials. A reproducible lesson
planning guide makes it easy to start implementing new
strategies immediately.
Quantum Learning covers tips, hints, strategies, and
the whole process of learning that can sharpen the
understanding of memory, and learning as an enjoyable
process and meaningful one .
According to DePorter et al (2002:16), "Quantum
Learning is the interactions that converts energy into
light". Quoting Albert Einstein's formula, ie, E = mc2,
DePorter Letting force energy into the human body
analogy that physically matters. So that learning
objectives are achieved by Quantum Learning as much
as possible light.
Reading is one of the most important skills that the
students have to master. In refernce to reading there are
some skills that should be mastered by the students,
such as : to finding certain information (specific
information), to get a general description on the content
of the text, to get explicit information, to get implicit
information, to find details of the information, to find
Y2
The formula is : t =
( Sallie Powell, 1996:46).
Where
is the mean of difference between pretest and
posttest
is the sample
is the standard deviation for the difference
between pretest and posttest
6. Research Procedure
The research procedure consist of the following
steps :
a. Teaching reading without explaining using quantum
teaching and learning method. And then gave a test
(pretest) to find out the students achievement
before giving the treatments. It was conducted on
28 Mei 2012.
b. Teaching reading and gave the treatments (using
quantum teaching and quantum learning method).
In was conducted on 29 May 2012 and 09 June
2012.
c. Gave the test again (posttest) to find out the
students achievement after giving the treatments. It
was conducted on 11 June 2012.
After the score of the tests have been collected, the
writer analyzed the result from both the test.

2. Suggestions
The research which is also a classroom research is
benefical for improving the teaching learning process.
Thats why this kind of study is one way to enhance the
achievement of students In conditions this study it
would be much better if :
a. Teaching reading to the tenth class at the SMAN 1
Cibeber Cianjur done by explaining using quantum
teaching and quantum learning method.
b. The teaching learning of the topic under study is
isolated from the other teaching learning skill.
c. Auido-visual aids should be used as much as
possible to make class lively.
d. More time should be allotted to this kind of the
study, so that i new treatments are neccessary can
be carried out.
