Foreign language, reading comprehension, culturally different.Abstract
It is a truth that bilingual students learn English differently from foreign language learners because the latter group interacts with many languages. After that, this article concentrates on reading in a second language for English language learners. The use of the first language, culturally disparate schemata, and a lack of vocabulary knowledge are all issues that English language learners must contend with when trying to improve their reading comprehension skills in the language. This article discusses these concerns and offers ideas for English teachers to receive better training. Improving the reading comprehension of English language learners requires cultivating cultural sensitivity, promoting biliteracy, and using explicit instruction in real-world situations.
