Theorizing about reading instruction was the goal here. Reading instruction is discussed in light of several theories, including behaviorism, schemata, self-efficacy, cognition, autonomy, and Krashen's input hypothesis. Reading theories guide evidence-based teaching techniques and offer a framework for comprehending reading's complexity. These theories provide light on how to teach reading skills and how to facilitate students' comprehension of written material. The report outlined the ideas' merits, discussed their consequences, and addressed their detractors. Teachers can further their pupils' reading development and encourage a love of reading for life by integrating these beliefs into reading instruction. So, for anyone interested in learning about reading instruction ideas and how they are implemented in the classroom, this paper provides a clear and concise explanation.
