The implementation of giving quiz using Google Form among the students broke the bridge between the low achiever and high achiever students in working the task given. The process of answering quiz by students’ mobile phone made them felt comfortable and had self confidence since they had the same responsible in getting information about the content of the English reading text they had and they could do it in secret.Nobody knew whether they had a lot of mistakes or not in answering it. In this way, nobody was able to be lazy or ignore the quiz, because each other wanted to be successful to do the reading comprehension task.

Realizing that there was a comfortable situation of the students’ reading comprehension achievement by using Google quiz , it seems that this could be applied in other subject.

It is suggested that the teacher applies Google quiz as one of the interesting way for learning as another variety of teaching reading, to help students able to find the main idea and the supporting details of English reading text to improve their reading comprehension achievement. Using Google quiz also supports paper saving programs as a form of environmental awareness. It is also greatly helped by the existence of Google quiz in terms of cost, time, and energy. So,if there is no problem in internet connection ,why don’t we use this kind of quiz?
