Reading is one of four language skills. It is a receptive skill which involves responding to texts, rather than producing it. The students can read everything around them and get much information by developing their reading comprehension. Teams-Games-Tournament is one of the team learning strategies designed by Robert Slavin for review and mastery learning of material. Robert Slavin has found that TGT increased basic skills, students’ achievement, positive interactions between students, acceptance of mainstreamed classmates and self-esteem. TGT have three structural components, teams, games, and tournaments. The team component involves assigning students in a classroom to a series of four- or five-member teams. The students are assigned to create maximal heterogeneity within each team (on student achievement, race, and sex) and equality across teams. Team membership remains intact over time; within-team interaction and cohesion are fostered by frequently held teamwork sessions and by assigning teammates to adjacent seats. The research design that is used in this study is quantitative research. The independent variable studied was Team Games Tournament while the students’ reading ability is the dependent variable and this research is class X Akutansi I at SMK Kosgoro Nganjuk. The treatment that is given to the students is using Team Games Tournament technique to increase their reading ability and can achieve all aspect of reading, in this case the writer concern on using Team Games Tournament during reading for Narrative text.

It means that t-score (7,439) > t-table significance of 5% (1,708). So the Null Hypothesis ( Ho) was rejected and the Alternative Hypothesis ( Ha) was Accepted.
