Abstrak

This research aims to determine the effect of the TQLR strategy on students' listening comprehension, especially in terms of answer accuracy using the TQLR Strategy for tenth grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Meranti.

This research design is experimental, used with a pre-test and post-test. The population of this research is Class X students of SMA Negeri 1 Meranti for the 2023/2024 academic year. 40 students from class X and 40 students from class Y were selected as samples using random sampling technique. This research was carried out by researchers from April 6 to April 27 2024 in 12 meetings. Data was obtained through a native speaker listening test using application media as an alternative for students to listen to native speakers.

The findings show that the TQLR strategy in terms of answer accuracy is effective for improving students' listening comprehension. This is supported by the students' average score on the pre-test of 5.88 and increasing to 7.88 on the post-test and the t-test score being greater than the t-table score (4.85 > 1.711). And in terms of general understanding, it is also effective in improving students' listening comprehension. This is supported by the average student score on the pre-test of

6.43 and increasing to 7.98 on the post-test. And the t-count value is greater than the t-table value (4.72 > 1.711). Therefore, the Alternative Hypothesis is accepted and the Null hypothesis is rejected. Based on the analysis of the results, the researcher concluded that the TQLR strategy really helped students in improving students' listening comprehension.
