Abstract: The development of effective reading skills is critical for teenagers learning foreign languages, as it enhances their comprehension, vocabulary acquisition, and overall language proficiency. This study focuses on strategies to improve reading skills among adolescents, emphasizing the unique challenges faced by this age group, such as varying levels of motivation, cognitive development, and language exposure. Key methodologies, including the use of age-appropriate texts, technology integration, and interactive reading exercises, are explored. The role of authentic materials and adaptive learning techniques is also examined, with the goal of fostering a more engaging and supportive learning environment.
