| Summary: | Reading is a key for success in any learning process. This exploratory study was carried out in
order to investigate student’s ability in second language reading by using a special assessment called the San
Diego Quick Reading Assessment. The assessment was used to measure student’s ability in uttering and
understanding the meaning of the words. At the same time, the objective of the research is also to investigate
student’s perception on their reading ability. Therefore, the correlation or relationships of both instruments
were used to get the findings. Overall findings show that the students did not score good grades in the
assessment and similarly, they perceived that they did not have second language reading ability. The findings
are important to be relied on for the future reading intervention programs to teachers, parents and educational
bodies. |
