“…In the meantime, Genre Based Approach (GBA) (e.g., Montero-Arévalo, 2019;Pham & Bui, 2021;Angraini & Rozimela, 2020) and Reading to Learn (R2L) pedagogy (e.g., Rose & Martin, 2012;Vencesla, 2021;Damayanti, 2017;Becerra, Herazo, Garcia, Sagre, & Diaz, 2020;Mataka, Mukurunge, & Bhila, 2020;Millin & Millin, 2018;Millin, Millin, & Pearce, 2020;Bogale, 2018) are proven as effective approaches in teaching both writing and reading skills. All mentioned approaches improve EFL students' ability in understanding, interpreting, and reflecting the text as well as closing the literacy gap (Hamra & Syatriana, 2010;Raphael & Au, 2005;Rose & Martin, 2012;Daniarti , Taufiq, R., & Sunaryo, 2020;Phichiensathien, 2018;Millin et al, 2020;Millin & Millin, 2018). Among all reading comprehension approaches, Reading to Learn (henceforth R2L) pedagogy that was developed from Genre-based Approach (GBA) is considered as the appropriate approach in motivating and improving reading comprehension skills.…”
