- The objectives of this study were to find out whether (1) students’ achievement in reading comprehension that was taught by Title, Examine, Look, Look, Setting (TELLS) technique was higher than Proposition Support Outlines Technique (PSOT). (2) Students’ achievement in reading comprehension with high interest higher than with low interest, and (3) there was interaction between teaching techniques and interest on students’ achievement in reading comprehension. The population of this research was students social science grade XI of State Senior High School (Sekolah Menengah Atas Negeri: SMA) 2 Rantau Utara Labuhanbatu in the 2016 / 2017 school year. The total number of population was 280 students. There were 80 students selected as the sample of this research by applying cluster random sampling technique. The research design was experimental research design by using factorial design 2x2. The eleventh social science one (XI IPS 1) was treated by using Title, Examine, Look, Look, Setting (TELLS) and the eleventh natural science three (XI IPA-3) was treated by using Proposition Support Outlines Technique (PSOT). Interest test was conducted for classifying the students upon the high interest and low interest. Students’ achievement in reading expository text was measured by using comprehension test.

The results reveals that (1) students’achievement in reading expository text taught by using Title, Examine, Look, Look, Setting (TELLS) technique was higer than that taught by using Proposition Support Outlines Technique (PSOT) teaching technique with Fob = 17.902 > Ftab = 3.11, (2) students’ achievement in reading expository text of students with hight interest was higher than that of students with low inerest, with Fobs 38.988 > Ftab = 3.11, (3) there is interaction between teaching technique and interes on students’ achievement in reading expository text with Fobs = 5.962 > Ftab =3.11. After computing the Scheffe test, the result showed that high interest students got higher result if they were taught by Title, Examine, Look, Look, Setting (TELLS) and low interest students got higher result if they were taught by Proposition Support Outlines Technique (PSOT).
