This study was undertaken  to investigate the effectiveness of retelling strategy in enhancing  reading comprehension. The study intended to find out if the use of Retelling Strategy can bring  about improvement in the post-test scores after treatment as compared to the pre-test scores. The  two-group pre-test post-test experimental design was adopted in this study in order to discover the  effectiveness of Retelling Strategy in improving reading comprehension. Sixty four Form Three  students of a National Secondary school served as samples in this study. Data in the form of scores  from the pre-test and post-test were collected to be analyzed. A comparison of mean scores between  the pre-test and post-test for both the experimental and control group showed an increment but  the  experimental group  showed that the students have improved their test scores slightly higher  after  they were subjected to treatments using Retelling Strategy as compared to test scores .....
