Abstract:
Many senior secondary school students struggle with reading comprehension of expository texts in Nigeria, leading to mass failure in the Senior School Certificate Examinations conducted by the West African Examination Council (WAEC). Research on improving reading comprehension has dwelt on isolated reading strategies taught the learners through the conventional lecture method. No study has explored the effect of video-based training on metacognitive strategies and verbal ability on students’ achievement in reading comprehension. This study, therefore investigated the effect on achievement in

Abstract:
Prediction skill may be used in reading comprehension passages as encapsulated in interactive approach instruction. Prediction skills assist learners to decode the meaning of comprehension passages by constructing guesses about the contents of texts to be read in comprehension passages. Learners in Vihiga County register low achievement in English language examinations than peers in neighbouring counties over the years. The performance is much weaker in comprehension passages than grammar sections. Although there are low grades, the nexus between use of prediction skills and learners&rsquo

Abstract:
The poor performance of Nigerian students in the English language, both in internal and external examinations, poses a challenge to scholars of reading. This study sought to find out if story retelling as a technique of teaching reading comprehension and writing will in any way affect the ability of Junior Secondary School (JSS 3) students to comprehend text, retell given stories as well as improve their writing. The quasi experimental method was used to conduct the study. Eighty subjects in two junior secondary schools in Owerri, East of Nigeria, were grouped into Experimental and Control gro

Abstract:
Human beings transmit knowledge from one generation to another through many ways/skills. This is why the human being is different from other creatures. One of the many tools used by humans is reading. Reading is, no doubt, a complex but very important skill needed by everyone who wishes to succeed in life. The ultimate goal of reading is to be able to understand/comprehend written material, evaluate it, and use the material for one’s need. Comprehension, therefore, is required of the material read. Reading has a lot to do in one’s life as it is the foundation of enjoyment in life; it is equall

Abstract:
This study was raised due to problems in learning reading. The researchers saw that teachers and students experience constraints in the learning process. The problem is when students do not understand the content of the reading because students only learn to translate word by word and do not understand the contents of the reading. The purpose of research is to know the strategies used by English teachers and the reasons why did the English teacher choose those strategies to teach English reading comprehension and describe the application using the strategies chosen by English teachers in readi

Abstract:
Examinations in public education are supposed to guarantee that students’ performances are measured using the same standards from exam period to exam period. One important element of guaranteeing the same standards is the use of materials that present the same degree of challenge to candidates in different examinations. In the assessment of foreign language proficiency, such materials primarily include target language texts. This study offers a comparative analysis of the difficulty of texts used in the reading comprehension section of the school-leaving examinations of the past five years in
