The objective of this study is to improve reading comprehension at VIII IPS C students of SMP BOPKRI 3 Yogyakarta in the academic year of 2014/2015 through mind mapping technique. This technique was chosen based on the observation and interview before conducting the research. According to the curriculum and in line with the course grid arranged before the implementation of the actions, narrative texts were used during implementing the actions. This study was categorized as Action Research which was conducted in two cycles. The data of this study were both qualitative and quantitative. They were obtained by interviewing the students of class VIII IPS C of SMP BOPKRI 3 Yogyakarta, holding discussions with English teacher and school principal, conducting tests before and after implementing the action and doing observations in the teaching and learning process. The techniques for collecting the data were observation, interview, and reading comprehension tests. The qualitative data were in the form of field notes and interview transcripts during the research, while the quantitative data were in the form of reading comprehension tests. To avoid subjective analysis the triangulation was carried out. The research results shown that the mind mapping technique is effective to improve the students’ reading comprehension of class VIII IPS C students of SMP BOPKRI 3 Yogyakarta. Meanwhile, the percentage score based on the tests showed that the mean score of the post test was 75,16 which was higher than pretest 58,83. It means that there is a significant improvement -16,33 of students’ reading comprehension ability. In addition, the result of t-test showed that the mean score of the post test was 75,16 which was higher than pretest 58,83. It meant there was significant improvement -16,33. Moreover, it was supported by the result of the post-test’s standard deviation 7,82 which was smaller the pre-test 12,083. It meant that the students’ reading comprehension was homogeneous. Furthermore, the t value was -10,053 (p < 0,05) that meant there was a significant improvement after the action.
