Abstract

The aim of this study was to find out the teacher's strategies in teaching reading comprehension. A qualitative case study was used as a research approach. This research was conducted at SMPN 7 Palembang with one English teacher as participant using purposeful and criterion sampling. In collecting data, the researcher used observation and interviews. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis methods. The findings of this study indicated that the teacher employed two strategies in teaching comprehension. Reading aloud was a strategy where the teacher or students read a text aloud to improve comprehension. This strategy also helped students become more engaged in the learning process and enhanced their overall language proficiency. The qars helped students think critically by asking questions after reading. Students did not just look for answers within the text but also analyzed and connected information.
