Despite obstacles, the HOTS system enhances students' problem-solving and creative thinking skills, focusing on HOTS in reading at SMPN 01 Rejang Lebong.This research method is qualitative. Data collection techniques were obtained through interviews, observation and document analysis, with two English teachers as research subjects.
