Being able to read well in English seems to be a must for them. The condition of teaching learning process in MTs NU Wahid Hasyim Salafiyah, many of students felt bored to join reading class. The reason is the teacher always teaches students only by asking students to read the sentences of text one by one and try to translate it together to Indonesia. On this condition the writer tries to apply the Crazy Professor Reading Technique as the technique to teach reading.
The objective of this research is to find out whether there is a significant difference of reading recount text comprehension of eighth grade students of MTs NU Wahid Hasyim Salafiyah Jekulo Kudus in academic year 2012/2013 before and after being taught by using Crazy Professor Reading Technique.

It was found t-observation 6.18 in the level of significance 0.05, the degree of freedom (df) 25, and t-table (tt) 2.06. In other word t-observation is higher than t-table (to>tt). Thus, Ho is denied and Ha is confirmed. Therefore, the hypothesis state, “there is significant different between The Reading Recount Text Comprehension of eighth grade students of MTs NU Wahid Hasyim Salafiyah Jekulo Kudus in academic year 2012/2013 before and after being taught by using Crazy Professor Reading Technique” is confirmed.

Dalam kondisi ini penulis mencoba menerapkan teknik Profesor Gila Membaca sebagai teknik dalam mengajarkan pemahaman membaca.
Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menemukan adakah perbedaan secara signifikan pada pemahaman membaca teks recount pada murid kelas delapan MTs NU Wahid Hasyim Salafiyah Jekulo Kudus tahun pelajaran 2012/2013 sebelum dan setelah diajar dengan menggunakan teknik profesor gila membaca.
