This article presents the analysis of metacognitive strategy and reading comprehension. The result shows that there is not any positive relationship between these variables.

As the result, the value skills obtained by students was associated with the understanding of the low reading comprehension skills. These conditions also influenced in decreasing metacognitive strategy of the students, because they will feel hopeless with the result obtained. The findings of this research also have implications to the teachers, some efforts given to students by awarding something to students was useless. Therefore, the teachers are expected to try doing another approach to improve the student metacognitive strategy by praising or giving reward in order to appreciate what students done.
