However there are many students who still have some difficulties in understanding the descriptive text. For that reason, the writer did the research to help the students in understanding about the descriptive text. The objective of this research is to find out whether Quantum Reading can enhance the reading comprehension of the eighth grade students of MTs N 1 Kudus in academic year 2013/2014.Then the writer intends to enhance the students reading comprehension by proposing Quantum Reading as an alternative method with its special design frame that emphasizes joyful and experiential learning.
