46. Example of Significance of the Study
The researcher believes that this study will not only yield
data that will be helpful to her, more so, to the following groups
of people:
The Learners. In particular, the Grade 12 students will be
equipped with how peer tutoring is done as to how it works to
improve reading fluency. Hence, students may aspire effective peer
tutors in order for them to improve their reading fluency. On the
other hand, the study would benefit those being tutored by improving
their fluency in reading through peer – mediated instruction.
The Teachers. The result of this study will offer teachers
particularly language teachers with empirical information on the
effect of peer tutoring to the reading fluency of the students.
Thus, it will lead them to employ peer tutoring as an approach in
handling the slow – readers.

56. Problem Statement
The major concern of this
study is to determine the roles
of school principals in
improving reading skills of
Senior High School students in
the Division of Meycauyan
City.
Theoretical Framework
The study is anchored from the
theoretical support of the three models on the
effects of principals on student literacy and
achievement by Hallinger and Heck (1996 –
1998), the direct – effects model, where
principals directly affect student outcomes
without mediating variables; the mediated –
effects model, where the principals indirectly
affect student outcomes through mediating variables; and the reciprocal –
effects model where principals and features of the school have an interactive
relationship. Consequently, principals have a critical leadership role to
play in helping students improve their reading skills or literacy. This is
the principal, according to Crawford and Torgesen (2007), who inspired
high standards and the confidence that the goals of high standards can be
achieved.
57. Through the achievement of high standards, effective student performance
maybe integrated into the culture of the school.
The effective principal gave the leadership necessary to drive the
operations and activities that exist within the schools’ curriculum. In a
study done by Crawford and Torgesen (2007), this was found that effective
leadership is a dominant component when identifying successful schools.
Effective schools are those schools that demonstrate effective student
literacy and achievement through the direct influence of the school
principal.

Conceptual Framework
Figure 1. Conceptual Framework
Figure 1 presents the conceptual framework of the study. It consists of
two variables, peer tutoring as an independent variable and reading fluency as
the dependent variable.
In figure 1, peer tutoring as an independent variable pertains to an
efficient instructional method and a component of cooperative learning that
permits a teacher to provide in-depth specific instruction to an individual
student while at the same time ensuring that the remaining students in the
classroom remain actively engaged with the assigned task. It pertains to an
educational strategy that can meet the academic and social skills of diverse
learners simultaneously regardless of ability level. Peer tutoring employs
peers as one – on – one teachers to provide instruction, practice, repetition
and clarification of concepts.
69. SAMPLE CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
Another variable, reading fluency refers to the ability to read
expressively and meaningfully, as well as accurately and with appropriate
speed. It is often identified as words read correctly per minute and has three
elements – decoding, constructing meaning and parsing or chunking for prosodic
reading.
