Abstract

This paper identified the way of teaching and learning EFL reading comprehension at
a junior high school. 49 participants were involved in a research which was conducted by
quantitative survey and face-to-face interview. The results revealed that irrelevant second
language acquisition principles caused the poor performance in teaching and learning EFL
readings. This study also attempted to explore and justify the teaching technique, guide, and
instruction, especially how the relevant EFL reading principles should be inculcated while
processing reading in the EFL class. Finally, the research concluded that the EFL reading
comprehension was an integrated skill that could be taught and learnt in a much more effective
way with some pedagogical suggestions.
