A person is considered to have good reading skills if they can understand a text and the information contained in it. Therefore, an effective teaching strategy is needed. One of the teaching strategies is Two Stay Two Stray. Even though it has advantages, Two Stay Two Stray also has weaknesses. Therefore, researchers combined Two Stay Two Stray with Skimming. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of using Two Stay Two Stray technique with Skimming towards students’ reading comprehension in hortatory exposition text. This research used quantitative method with a quasi-experimental research design. In determining the research sample, the researcher used a purposive sampling technique. The sample for this research was twelfth grade students from MAN 1 Jombang. The researcher used XII-C as the experimental class and XII-E as the control class. The finding of the significant value 2-tailed of the Mann-Whitney U test is 0.028, lower than 0.05. The findings showed a significant difference between students who were taught by using Two Stay Two Stray with Skimming and those who were not. It means that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted. In conclusion, the Two Stay Two Stray technique with Skimming is effective to teach students’ reading comprehension. The researcher suggests combining Two Stay Two Stray with other reading techniques or other media to get more interesting and interactive learning activities.
