A study on effective reading strategies of students of grade 6 at Phu Ninh secondary school

Abstract

This study has explored the effect of reading strategies training in a classroom at Phu Ninh secondary school. After applying skills such as skimming, scanning, making reference and guessing unknown words, students could answer their reading question more quickly and effective. According to the answer the student ticked on the questionnaire unknown words were their most obstacles in their reading. Because of that guessing unknown words were most used by them after the training. Their score were increased significantly. These finding suggest that we should adapt word guessing strategy training to the daily English lessons more actively.
