Abstract
The issue of reading becomes more significant when it comes to the English language because English is used in a number of countries as first and second language. Besides, English is used as a medium of instruction in basic school to tertiary levels in these countries. More importantly reading in English is more significant if students are needed to be competent enough in their academic achievement. This study involved teachers in grades 6 in selected public schools in Davao City. This group was chosen because, the following year, they are supposed to be in grade seven to write their examinations which are to be read and answered in English without anybodys help. These examinations are very critical as they determine whether the pupil will proceed to secondary education or not. Therefore, it is expected that by the time a pupil reaches grade six, they must be competent in reading as preparation for their Junior High School life. These participants are currently teaching in the school year 2021-2022 with more than two years of experience in teaching reading. A total of 7 participants are considered in this study who will join the in-depth interview and focused group discussion. The results of this study revealed that learners tend to have less access to and poorer quality of education than other groups. Their education often does not incorporate curricula and teaching methods that recognize their communities histories, cultures, pedagogies, traditional languages, and traditional knowledge. Thus, in teaching them teachers must boost their full courage and dedication so that proper education will be achieved.
