Abstract

The reform of curriculum in Indonesia to the 2013 curriculum influences the way teachers teach in the classroom in which in this case they are demanded to apply student-centered teaching. In order to implement the student-centered teaching, two components of self regulated learning; metacognitive self regulation and cognitive strategy used are involved. Regarding to see the effectiveness of these components, this study is objected to investigate the uses of metacognitive self regulation and cognitive strategy with reading comprehension. It employs a qualitative research design. 30 senior high school students participated in this study. The data were obtained from self regulated reading task adapted from Maftoon & Tasnimi (2014). The result revealed that both components of SRL gave a positive relation with students' reading comprehension where cognitive strategies used were mostly used by the students. The implication of the study offers a suggestion for the English teachers to utilize both components of SLR in their teaching in order to improve students' reading comprehension through the best possible instruction.
