Book synopsis

This longitudinal study builds on previous research in both L1 and L2 reading and examines the reading rate and comprehension of ESL learners by applying the assisted repeated reading method. It investigated the relationship between students' actual reading rate and comprehension and the reading program objectives established at their school. Three questions were addressed: (1) Does the assisted repeated reading method help English as a Second Language (ESL) learners increase their silent reading rate when reading new unpracticed passages? (2) Does the assisted repeated reading method help English as a Second Language learners (ESL) increase their reading comprehension when reading new unpracticed passages? (3) What do students and teachers feel about incorporating the assisted repeated reading in the classroom? Statistical analysis of the findings indicate that the assisted repeated reading method significantly helps ESL students increase their reading rate. However, the assisted repeated reading method failed to help ESL students increase their comprehension scores.
