Journal Title: Qlantic Journal of Social Sciences and Humanities - QJSSH - Year 2024, Vol 5, Issue 2

Abstract

The goal of this study was to look into the impact of using folklore in ESL classrooms to teach English reading skills. Because English is a second language in Pakistan, the researcher employed the term ESL in this study. This study used a quantitative experimental research method. The results of the pre-and post-tests showed that folklore had a positive effect on the experimental group students as their results improved. The results of the control group showed no significant difference. The questionnaire completed by teachers produced a positive response. The majority of teachers agreed that folklore can help students expand their vocabulary and read more fluently. Most teachers agreed that incorporating folklore into an educational program motivates students to read more. Overall, the research findings were positive.
