Harefa, H.S., Telaumbanua, P.K.S.,
Telaumbanua, Y.A, & Zega, R.(2023)
To assess the improvement in the collaborative teaching strategies implemented, student surveys and interviews, classroom observation,
peer observation with interviews were used. Students were asked to report their perceived advantages and disadvantages to
collaborative teaching and these responses were used to adjust strategies employed during the collaborative teaching sessions.
Based on the feedback of the peer observers, administrators and students, collaboratively taught classes could be improved by
developing teaching plans that allow for hands-on and interactive activities that maximize the presence of multiple teachers but could
be accomplished well within the instructional time. Problems encountered during scheduling, preparation and implementation may be
solved by adjusting the workload of the teacher. Students generally gave positive responses for the collaborative teaching lessons that
were implemented. Perceived advantages of collaborative teaching are that it allowed for more hands-on activities, better understanding
of the lesson and better interactions between teachers and students. The perceived disadvantages of collaborative teaching are classes
getting noisy and some students not participating in the activities.
Galvez, J. & Del Ocampo, M. (2023). The concept of communicative competence in language teaching and acquisition studies is directly related to the notion of linguistic
competence, whose consolidation is based on the distinction between competence and performance. Competence is the prior knowledge
of the speaker-listener’s language, while performance is the actual use of the language in specific situations. On the other hand, from the
study of language as a system, the interest does not lie in the use of language or the acquisition and teaching of languages but in the
development of a linguistic theory focused mainly on grammatical rules that is, competence, rather than performance, is the primary
subject matter.
Velasco, C. (2023). The present study was conducted for two purposes:(1) to compare the learners’ comprehension ability before and after the
implementation of two types of pre-reading activities, guessing reading content from asking pre- reading questions and vocabulary
definition, (2) to investigate the learners’ attitudes towards the implementation of two pre-reading activities.
Research participants consisted of 60 grade- 10 students studying at Omol Habibeh high school in Ilam, Iran. A test of reading
comprehension ability was administered to assign the subjects into two groups. The two groups were given different pre-reading activity,
guessing reading content from asking pre-reading questions and vocabulary definition, respectively. The research instrument consisted of
reading comprehension test (used as pre- and post- tests). The experiment using the two pre reading activities were carried out for 5
weeks two sessions a week .The data was analysed statistically to identify means, standard deviation, and t-value. It was found that after
implementation of the 2 pre-reading activities the subjects performed better in the post-test, at significant level of .05. When compared
the results of the 2 pre-reading activities, it was found that the group receiving guessing meaning from pre-reading questions performed
better that their counterpart who experienced vocabulary definitions, at.05. It was also found that both groups were satisfied with the
activity they experienced.

This research has been conducted at SMP Dharma Wanita. The population was the eighth grade students of SMP Dharma Wanita which
consisted of 48 students into two classes, namely VIII-A and VIII-B. VIII-A as the experimental class and VIII-B as the control class.
Both of classes consisted of 48 students with homogenous score. The experimental class treated by using the conventional ways. The
pre-test was given to the two groups before giving the treatment. The result of pre-test showed the mean score of experimental class was
40, 16 and the control class was 36, 35. After giving the treatment, post-test was given. The result of post-test showed the mean score of
experimental class was 72, 64 and the control class was 39, 35.
Cortezo, G., (2023). This study aims to determine the relationship between the reading comprehension level and academic performance of Grade 7 students.
This study utilized the reading comprehension level and academic performance of the students in four different sections of grade 7. The
reading comprehension level of the students will be based on the result of a series of test contained in PHIL-IRI or Philippine Informal
Reading Inventory conducted by either the Class Adviser of the English Language Teacher. This study does not include factors affecting
both the reading comprehension level and academic performances of the students.
Wirana, C., Manawir, A., & Putri, A.

the text better.
Lan, N. (2023). Educational factors such as teaching method, instructional time, school environment, understanding, motivation, and prior knowledge,
are the factors that affect reading comprehension. In order to comprehend written material students need to, accurately read and
understand the words being used.

students with intellectual disabilities (N=27); and 2) to predict the impact of these variables on their performance in reading. A
standardized reading comprehension test (MRQ), and different instruments to assess aspects of Meta-comprehension (meta-
comprehension inventory, inconsistency detection test and confidence in performance judgements) were applied.
Satriawan, A. (2023). This type of research is descriptive qualitative using the error analysis. This study used document review and interview techniques in

usage error. From the results of this study, the types of errors that often appeared and made by the students were spelling error. The
reasons why students made these errors as follow: 1) students were not thorough 2) not understanding of English vocabulary 3) lack of
understanding the material. Even though they experience some difficulties, students are still trying to do the assignment given and have
enthusiasm when describing the character as seen from the results.

(2023).
This qualitative study identified the common reading problems that negatively impact reading comprehension of third graders with
learning disabilities. It also investigated the effective reading strategies that special education teachers have utilized to improve reading
comprehension levels of the students in resource room settings. For the purpose of this study, “effective reading comprehension
strategies” are defined as any strategies that have been found by the special education teachers as beneficial for improving reading
comprehension levels of third graders with learning disabilities in the resource room setting. Importantly, a particular reading
comprehension strategy could be beneficial based on these teachers’ experiences while working with students who have learning
disabilities, but it might not have been found to be an effective reading strategy in the literature. Thus, the focus of this research was on
determining the effectiveness of using a particular strategy based on teachers’ teaching experiences, rather than strategies only found in
the literature.
Phuong, N.T.L. (2022). According to this study, teachers have been using techniques including questioning, predicting, retelling, and picturing to promote
reading comprehension. Additionally, it showed that the majority of the students gave enough feedback on the tactics used by their
teachers. According to these findings, teachers should inform students of the instructions before they read the text and utilize tactics for
teaching reading comprehension in line with each student's level of ability and personality to encourage greater engagement.

students in vocabulary learning were various. Kinds of difficulties faced by the students were (1) almost all of the students have
difficulties in pronouncing the words, (2) how to write and spell, (3) the different grammatical form of a word known as inflections was
one of causes of students difficulties in learning vocabulary. In addition, (4) the students found difficulties in choosing the appropriate
meaning of the words and (5) also still confuse in using the word based on the context. The last, (6) the students were also still confuse
when they found words or expression that were idiomatic. There were some factors that caused students' difficulties in learning
vocabulary (1) the written form is different from the spoken form in English, (2) The number of words that students need to learn is
exceedingly large, (3) the limitations of sources of information about words, (4) The complexity of word knowledge. Knowing a words
involves much more than knowing its dictionary definition, (5) causes of lack of understanding of grammatical of the words, (6) the

Septia, N., Indrawati, I., Juriana, J., &
Rudini, R. (2022).

comprehension because they have no motivation in reading habit, they read a little or nothing. It is considered to be a problem for the
students to comprehend a reading text. Another students’ difficulties in reading comprehension was the low reading skill. The students
complained about the fact that they found, they need to study hard to remember the information they just read. They also need much time
to read the text to overcome their problem. Too difficult reading material is also one of student’s problem in understanding the reading
text. The material of reading is unfamiliar for them and grammatical complexity is also a reason why the students failed to comprehend
the text correctly. The sentences in reading text too long or having complicated sentences. Related with these problem, new words and
long texts are seen by the students as a major obstacle to comprehend a reading text.

group (CG) (n = 30). After that, a reading comprehension test and a reading motivation questionnaire were administered to both groups
as the pre-tests of the study. After pretesting, the participants of the EG received the treatment through e-learning. Eight lessons of
Connect Book 4 were taught to the experimental participants online. On the other side, the participants of the CG were taught
traditionally, through a face-to-face fashion. In the last session, a reading comprehension test and a reading motivation questionnaire

students face the difficulty. The researcher distinguished the students' difficulties from the mistake they would have done in answering
reading questions. And then from the questionnaire, the researcher got details and deeper information about the students’ difficulties.

  • 14. STUDIES DETAILED AREA OF COCERN Harefa, H.S., Telaumbanua, P.K.S., Telaumbanua, Y.A, & Zega, R.(2023) To assess the improvement in the collaborative teaching strategies implemented, student surveys and interviews, classroom observation, peer observation with interviews were used. Students were asked to report their perceived advantages and disadvantages to collaborative teaching and these responses were used to adjust strategies employed during the collaborative teaching sessions. Based on the feedback of the peer observers, administrators and students, collaboratively taught classes could be improved by developing teaching plans that allow for hands-on and interactive activities that maximize the presence of multiple teachers but could be accomplished well within the instructional time. Problems encountered during scheduling, preparation and implementation may be solved by adjusting the workload of the teacher. Students generally gave positive responses for the collaborative teaching lessons that were implemented. Perceived advantages of collaborative teaching are that it allowed for more hands-on activities, better understanding of the lesson and better interactions between teachers and students. The perceived disadvantages of collaborative teaching are classes getting noisy and some students not participating in the activities. Galvez, J. & Del Ocampo, M. (2023). The concept of communicative competence in language teaching and acquisition studies is directly related to the notion of linguistic competence, whose consolidation is based on the distinction between competence and performance. Competence is the prior knowledge of the speaker-listener’s language, while performance is the actual use of the language in specific situations. On the other hand, from the study of language as a system, the interest does not lie in the use of language or the acquisition and teaching of languages but in the development of a linguistic theory focused mainly on grammatical rules that is, competence, rather than performance, is the primary subject matter. Velasco, C. (2023). The present study was conducted for two purposes:(1) to compare the learners’ comprehension ability before and after the implementation of two types of pre-reading activities, guessing reading content from asking pre- reading questions and vocabulary definition, (2) to investigate the learners’ attitudes towards the implementation of two pre-reading activities. Research participants consisted of 60 grade- 10 students studying at Omol Habibeh high school in Ilam, Iran. A test of reading comprehension ability was administered to assign the subjects into two groups. The two groups were given different pre-reading activity, guessing reading content from asking pre-reading questions and vocabulary definition, respectively. The research instrument consisted of reading comprehension test (used as pre- and post- tests). The experiment using the two pre reading activities were carried out for 5 weeks two sessions a week .The data was analysed statistically to identify means, standard deviation, and t-value. It was found that after implementation of the 2 pre-reading activities the subjects performed better in the post-test, at significant level of .05. When compared the results of the 2 pre-reading activities, it was found that the group receiving guessing meaning from pre-reading questions performed

FACTORS, TECHNIQUES AND STRATEGIES IN READING COMPREHENSION Afrilia, D., Ginting, F.Y.A, & Prayud, M.S (2023). This research has been conducted at SMP Dharma Wanita. The population was the eighth grade students of SMP Dharma Wanita which consisted of 48 students into two classes, namely VIII-A and VIII-B. VIII-A as the experimental class and VIII-B as the control class. Both of classes consisted of 48 students with homogenous score. The experimental class treated by using the conventional ways. The pre-test was given to the two groups before giving the treatment. The result of pre-test showed the mean score of experimental class was 40, 16 and the control class was 36, 35. After giving the treatment, post-test was given. The result of post-test showed the mean score of experimental class was 72, 64 and the control class was 39, 35. Cortezo, G., (2023). This study aims to determine the relationship between the reading comprehension level and academic performance of Grade 7 students. This study utilized the reading comprehension level and academic performance of the students in four different sections of grade 7. The reading comprehension level of the students will be based on the result of a series of test contained in PHIL-IRI or Philippine Informal Reading Inventory conducted by either the Class Adviser of the English Language Teacher. This study does not include factors affecting both the reading comprehension level and academic performances of the students. Wirana, C., Manawir, A., & Putri, A. (2022). This research aimed to investigate the effectiveness of reading techniques on reading comprehension. The findings were that reading techniques had a positive effect on students reading comprehension. The students had favourable attitudes towards skimming, scanning, making predictions and questioning and they could apply these strategies to their reading processes and they helped them to comprehend the text better. Lan, N. (2023). Educational factors such as teaching method, instructional time, school environment, understanding, motivation, and prior knowledge, are the factors that affect reading comprehension. In order to comprehend written material students need to, accurately read and understand the words being used. STUDENTS ACHIEVEMENT IN READING COMPREHENSION Agustin, N, A. (2022).

The data of this study were taken from the works of students who sent their descriptive texts a person, famous figure or place through emails. 12 students and 2 teachers had problems with interlingual transfer, intralingual transfer and context of learning, the results of this study indicate that there were several errors that occured namely 1) spelling error 2) punctuation error 3) grammar error 4) usage error. From the results of this study, the types of errors that often appeared and made by the students were spelling error. The reasons why students made these errors as follow: 1) students were not thorough 2) not understanding of English vocabulary 3) lack of understanding the material. Even though they experience some difficulties, students are still trying to do the assignment given and have enthusiasm when describing the character as seen from the results. Syukur Za, H., Martin, K., Tahir Harefa, A., & Daeli, H. (2023). This research aimed to know the eighth grade students’ satisfaction on the English teacher professionalism in teaching English as Foreign Language at SMP Negeri 8 in academic year. The object of this research was English teacher professionalism. The subject of this research was 151 eighth grade students’ satisfaction at SMP Negeri 8.

This qualitative study identified the common reading problems that negatively impact reading comprehension of third graders with learning disabilities. It also investigated the effective reading strategies that special education teachers have utilized to improve reading comprehension levels of the students in resource room settings. For the purpose of this study, “effective reading comprehension strategies” are defined as any strategies that have been found by the special education teachers as beneficial for improving reading comprehension levels of third graders with learning disabilities in the resource room setting. Importantly, a particular reading comprehension strategy could be beneficial based on these teachers’ experiences while working with students who have learning disabilities, but it might not have been found to be an effective reading strategy in the literature. Thus, the focus of this research was on determining the effectiveness of using a particular strategy based on teachers’ teaching experiences, rather than strategies only found in the literature. Phuong, N.T.L. (2022). According to this study, teachers have been using techniques including questioning, predicting, retelling, and picturing to promote reading comprehension. Additionally, it showed that the majority of the students gave enough feedback on the tactics used by their teachers. According to these findings, teachers should inform students of the instructions before they read the text and utilize tactics for teaching reading comprehension in line with each student's level of ability and personality to encourage greater engagement. DIFFICULTY IN IDENTIFYING VOCABULARY IN READING TEXT Asani, F. (2022). The findings showed that the students still faced the problems or difficulties in vocabulary learning. Kinds of difficulties faced by students in vocabulary learning were various. Kinds of difficulties faced by the students were (1) almost all of the students have difficulties in pronouncing the words, (2) how to write and spell, (3) the different grammatical form of a word known as inflections was one of causes of students difficulties in learning vocabulary. In addition, (4) the students found difficulties in choosing the appropriate meaning of the words and (5) also still confuse in using the word based on the context. The last, (6) the students were also still confuse when they found words or expression that were idiomatic. There were some factors that caused students' difficulties in learning vocabulary (1) the written form is different from the spoken form in English, (2) The number of words that students need to learn is exceedingly large, (3) the limitations of sources of information about words, (4) The complexity of word knowledge. Knowing a words involves much more than knowing its dictionary definition, (5) causes of lack of understanding of grammatical of the words, (6) the incorrect pronunciation is often caused by the lack of sound similarity between English and the students' native language. STUDENTS DIFFICULTIES IN READING COMPREHENSION Septia, N., Indrawati, I., Juriana, J., & Rudini, R. (2022). Based on the results of analyzing data from the questionnaire and interview, the researcher found most of students’ difficulties in reading comprehension because they have no motivation in reading habit, they read a little or nothing. It is considered to be a problem for the students to comprehend a reading text. Another students’ difficulties in reading comprehension was the low reading skill. The students complained about the fact that they found, they need to study hard to remember the information they just read. They also need much time to read the text to overcome their problem. Too difficult reading material is also one of student’s problem in understanding the reading
  • 18. text. The material of reading is unfamiliar for them and grammatical complexity is also a reason why the students failed to comprehend the text correctly. The sentences in reading text too long or having complicated sentences. Related with these problem, new words and long texts are seen by the students as a major obstacle to comprehend a reading text. PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING METHOD OF THE SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL ENGLISH STUDENTS Aulia, H., Laeli, A., & Ulwiyah, S. (2023). Problem-Based Learning is not just about being student-centered, but also because it encourages students to be problem solvers and learn through their understanding. This paper aims to see how Problem-Based Learning can affect the students’ reading comprehension in class. Classroom Action Research is chosen in this study. The participants were 30 students of the Senior High School English classes in Ambulu. Based on the findings, the Problem-Based Learning method could potentially become an effective method for students as there is a significant change between the first cycle and the second cycle of the use Problem- Based Learning method in the class. The improvement shown is that almost all of the students had their scores improved in the reading comprehension test after the implementation of Problem-Based Learning. THE EFFECT OF THE STUDENTS IN READING COMPREHENSION Alghazali, T.A.H., Hussein, R.A, Patra, I. & Prasad, K.D.V. (2022). This study aimed to examine the effects of e-learning on Iranian EFL learners’ reading comprehension and reading motivation. To this end, the OQPT was given to 101 Iranian EFL learners, and 60 of them who were at the intermediate level were selected as the participants of the study. Then, they were randomly divided into two groups: one experimental group (EG) (n = 30) and one control group (CG) (n = 30). After that, a reading comprehension test and a reading motivation questionnaire were administered to both groups as the pre-tests of the study. After pretesting, the participants of the EG received the treatment through e-learning. Eight lessons of Connect Book 4 were taught to the experimental participants online. On the other side, the participants of the CG were taught traditionally, through a face-to-face fashion. In the last session, a reading comprehension test and a reading motivation questionnaire were again given to both groups. The independent-samples t-test revealed that the EG outflanked the CG on the post-tests. The e- learning instruction aided Iranian EFL learners in enhancing their reading comprehension and reading motivation. Regarding the findings of this study, some implications are mentioned for learners, teachers, and curriculum designers. Balqi, M. (2022). The researcher analysed the result of the test to determine the students’ difficulties in comprehending the text, and in what aspects the students face the difficulty. The researcher distinguished the students' difficulties from the mistake they would have done in answering reading questions. And then from the questionnaire, the researcher got details and deeper information about the students’ difficulties. Jabu, B. & Dollah, S. (2023). The main purpose of the paper is to discuss how self-efficacy developed and the way it influences students‟ academic performance in addition to social interaction with peers. A scenario was given to Pakistani schools‟ student by solving mathematical problems. Present study was designed to study the impact of self-efficacy on 15 boys, students of the 5th grade of a local school. Hague’s (1990) Urdu Self-efficacy scale was administered.
