  • The objective of this study is to know the effectiveness of memorizing technique in teaching collocation at the second grade students of SMP Negeri 2 Tangerang Selatan academic year 2013/2014. The subjects of this study were 30 students. Experimental research was used as a method in this study. The study was carried out in two classes, one as the controlled class and the other as the experimental class. The data were gathered through tests. The test consisted of the pre-test and post-test. The result of the study showed that the memorizing technique is effective to use in teaching collocation. Gain score in the experimental class (22.93) is higher than the students in the controlled class (6.4). From the result of statistic calculation, it is obtained that the value of t-observation (to) is 20.71 and degree of freedom (df) is 58. In the table of significance 5%, the value of degree of significance is 2.00. Comparing those values, the result is 20.71 > 2.00 which means t-observation (to) score is higher than t-table (tt) score. In other word, the Alternative Hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and the Null Hypothesis (Ho) is rejected. Therefore, teaching collocation by using memorizing technique is effective.
