Abstract

In the previous decades scientists found a shared connection between an understudy's academic reading skills and academic success. Understudies and also instructors, be that as it may, underestimate the learning of this aptitude. Subsequently, most understudies utilize a surface approach to reading in reading academic reading materials. This paper will talk about the need of educators to instruct the correct reading methodologies to enable understudies to utilize a deep approach in reading academic writings. Members of this exploration consider were taken from first-year college course. The target of the examination is to assess understudies approach to reading by surveying the quality of their learning outcomes.
