Reading Aloud strategy used in the teaching reading skills, which means the teachers and students pronounced the word loudly in front of the class to get the information. The strategy is rewarding for students to understand the reading texts. Then, the researchers used a reading test as an instrument to know the students' competence in reading skills. This research used Quasi-Experimental Design.  The result was proved that the score in the experimental class was 61 with a standard deviation was 8.20 and the post-test score was 69.1 with a standard deviation was 8.22 then the score of pre-test in the control class was 56.5 with a standard deviation was 8.53 and post-test was 60.40 with standard deviation was 9. 68. The results achieved from both tests were different. Next, the t-test score both in class was 0, 00. It means that the hypothesis is accepted, it concluded that the implementation of the reading aloud strategy can improve students' reading skills competence.

Teaching reading skill to the students needs applying the appropriate strategy to stimulate students’ understanding to meet the main purpose in the teaching and learning process. It was expected that the strategy itself should be able to be used by the teacher to design the better ways for the students in order to acquire important information. It is realized that many students now need as much information as possible in comprehending all the texts they read. To overcome this problem, the researcher used chunking strategy to improve students’ reading skill. The researcher used true experiment to design this research, then the pre-test was used to find out whether this group in the same level and the post-test was used to detect the progress of the students. The total numbers of the students who involved in the pre-test and post-test were 20. The data showed that the information in the post-test that;  mean score was 70.50, and the pre-test got score was 61.85 then the standard deviation in the post-test was 10.32 and the standard deviation in pre-test is 8.27. It could be concluded that the students get significant progress in their understanding of reading skill by using Chunking strategy in English Department.

Teaching is one of the absolute requirements or obligations for a teacher where they convey knowledge to students. One of the teachings in this research is felt in the blank strategy because the strategy helps the students to overcome the problem of translation competence. The translation is a transfer of ideas from the source language to the target language and has the same meaning. Thus translation is also very important for students to learn through the teaching process carried out by lecturers to get more information and understand the text. This research is a qualitative method. Then the research instruments used questionnaires and interviews. The total respondents are 30 English department students at the Muhammadiyah University of North Maluku. Based on the result, most of the students are enjoyable and helpful in lecturing the teaching strategy. It proved that students learn translation because it is fun for them and makes it easier to interpret words and sentences. Students who learn translation can help them organize the meaning systematically and improve their knowledge, especially vocabulary, understanding the point of view of the text, and understanding the meaning of the text. It means that the implementation of the teaching strategy in translation class was accepted and improved on students' translation competence. While the data from the interview in this study also showed that students were very enjoyable in learning translation subjects so that they can improve their understanding of the meaning of a text, competence in translating a text, and improve their competence in understanding of English text.

Students need a technique to improve their writing skills. Following this, the mind mapping technique is used to help students to improve their writing skills. The quasi-experimental research method involved two groups, namely the experimental and the control class. Both classes were given a pre-test at the beginning. Then, the experimental group was taught using mind mapping techniques while the control group was taught without mind mapping techniques. Then, this research gave the instrument in the last session of this study, both groups were given a post-test. Then for data collection, researchers used a written test and data analysis using a t-test. It proves that there was a significant score on the t-test and the mean score of the experimental class and control class. In the experimental class score is 3.0 and the mean is 28.25. While in the control class, the t-test score is 3.0 and the mean score is 25.00. It proves that mind mapping techniques are an effective way to help students to overcome problems such as nervousness and not being confident to improve their writing skills, it also helps the students to organize systematic ideas and make them easy meaning to understand.
