The present study discussed the effectiveness of utilizing critical reading strategies on developing FL freshmen ̓ reading comprehension skills. Sixty participants took part in the present study. They are enrolled at the Faculty of Foreign Languages and Translation Language, Misr University for Science and Technology. They acted as one sampling group that responded to the pre/post-administrations of data collection instruments. Data were collected through a 20-item questionnaire of critical reading strategies and a FL reading comprehension test. The study adopted both methods of data analysis (the quantitative and qualitative). One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed to determine the statistical significant differences in the pre/post-administrations of the critical reading questionnaire and FL reading comprehension test. It also verifies the effectiveness of utilizing critical reading strategies on the enhancement of the participants' performance in FL reading comprehension.
