They still have high willingness and interest to recite the holy Qur’an,and to understand the contents correctly and since their childhood, because they were already taught about holy qur’an since they were child.
            In looking at the data, students have willingness to recite holy Quran. Although not every time and with istiqomah, they are not hard to do and most of their own accord. Some of them started to recite holy Quran with joining TPA. So, the problem is that they are not too istiqomah on reciting holy Qur’an.
