reading comprehension. As a result, reading
comprehension must be learned. According to the
respondent's answers, a few of them struggled to
understand what they read. As a result of the
respondent's answers about the reading material, 72% of
CHAPTER V respondents have poor reading comprehension, 24% of
respondents have average reading comprehension, and
4% of respondents have excellent reading
comprehension. Some of the primary reasons are that
they don't have the willingness to read. To enhance the
reading comprehension of the students, they can read
English books regularly, watch English movies, and listen
to podcasts to improve their reading comprehension.
