Abstract
The aim of this research is to find out whether: (1) PQ4R Method is more effective than Direct Instruction Method to teach reading; (2) students who have high intelligence have better reading skill than those who have low intelligence; and (3) there is an interaction effect between teaching methods and students’ intelligence in teaching reading. The research method used in this study is an experimental method. This research took 24 students for the experimental group and 24 students for the control group. The research instrument used to collect the data in this study is test. The data were analyzed by using multifactor analysis of variance 2x2 and Tuckey test. The computation of the data shows that: (1) PQ4R is more effective than Direct Instruction to teach reading; (2) the students who have high intelligence have better reading skill than those who have low intelligence; and (3) there is an interaction between teaching methods and students’ intelligence in teaching reading.
