The participants of the research were the researcher, the English teacher, the collaborator, and the students of grade VIII at SMPN 16 Yogyakarta. There were two kinds of the data in this research.

The qualitative data were obtained by doing observation, interviewing both students and collaborator, making field notes, and having discussions with the collaborator as an observer. The quantitative data were obtained from the pre-test and the post-test.

In reference to the actions conducted in two cycles, the implementation of compensation strategies improved students’ reading comprehension as justified in the following results. First, there is an improvement on students’ reading comprehension involvement as most of the students perform their willingness and motivation in reading comprehension practices.
