Studying literature is like pearl that spreads. Literature teaches many values that can give inspiration and motivation toward the students. A research that was done by David McClelland showed that an advanced country could develop fast because the society often heard the tales about the need for achievement (n-Ach). Besides, studying literature is aimed at preparing the personal growth, understanding the product of culture, helping to enrich and deepen the students’ sensibility, having a greater tolerance for cultural differences, learning how to appreciate, decide, and judge. Regrettably, if these values are not taught to the students, they will lose the chance to feel sensitiveness and have a good intuition in the real life. This research was Classroom Action research conducted at the five grade of English Education Program IAIN Surakarta. This research was aimed at explaining the concept of sharpening students’ intuition through literature in language teaching. Besides, this research also explained the impact of studying literature for the students. This research revealed that the concept of sharpening students’ intuition consists of comprehensive materials and integration between knowledge and science in language teaching. The impact of studying literature showed that students had a better understanding about values found in literature, they behave more polite than ever before, and they had a great desire to get a good achievement.
Key words: Literature, comprehensive, individual values, teaching method
