Reading is one of the four language skills which should be mastered by English learners. It is an activity of understanding the message of the text. This activity can be considered as a crucial aspect of one’s language ability because this skill deals with information and communication. Furthermore, almost all of the teaching learning process involves reading in the activity. Regarding the importance of reading, the selection of good materials is needed to help the students improve their reading comprehension. There are abundant materials that can be used in English classroom, one of them is authentic materials. Authentic materials are all materials in spoken or written form that are not designed for pedagogical purposes. Authentic materials are very useful to be used in the classroom besides motivating and interesting, authentic materials bring the students to the real world situation in which the language is used by a certain community. In line with that, Akar and Yildirim (2000) as quoted in Pandian (2011:9) found out that by using authentic materials, students’ motivation and their reading skills developed. With those consideration, the use of authentic materials are hoped to increase the students’ vocabulary knowledge that can help them to comprehend the sentence, paragraph and the whole text. The purpose of this research was to know whether or not there is a significant effect of using Authentic Materials on the Tenth Grade Students’ Reading Comprehension Achievement at MA Islamiyah Syafi’iyah Sumberanyar-Paiton. The area of this research was MA Islamiyah Syafi’iyah Sumberanyar-Paiton which was chosen because authentic materials had never been used by the English teacher in teaching English especially for teaching reading comprehension. The tenth grade students of MA Islamiyah Syafi’iyah Sumberanyar-Paiton were divided into three classes, they were XA, XB, and XC. The sample of the research was class XB (the experimental) consisted of 28 students and class XC (control class) consisted of 20 students. In this research, quasi-experimental with non equivalent pretest and posttest design was applied. The researcher firstly gave the pretest to the students from control class and experimental class. After that the experimental treatment was given, the experimental class received authentic materials as the reading text while the control class was taught by using material from textbook. Both classes then posttested with the same test items. At last, the pretest and posttest scores were analyzed by using ANCOVA through SPSS. The result of the analysis showed that the significant column of the class was 0.046, lower than 0.05. It indicates that there was a significant effect of using authentic materials on the tenth grade students’ reading comprehension achievement. Based on the explanation above, it was concluded that there is a significant effect of using authentic material on the tenth grade students’ reading comprehension achievement at MA Islamiyah Syafi’iyah Sumberanyar-Paiton.en_US
