English learning is important to non-native English speakers around the world. This study aimed to explore the effects of guided reading instruction on sixth graders attending afterschool English programs. The participants of the research were sixth graders from an urban district attending afterschool English programs in Hsinchu City, Taiwan. Both qualitative and quantitative data were collected for the research. The research purpose was to study the effects of guided reading instruction for English as a foreign language (EFL) students on word power, reading comprehension, and oral performance. The researcher collected and analyzed the research data from the participants’ pretests and posttests. The quantitative data included a 120-word recognition test, a 120-word pronunciation test, reading accuracy, reading fluency, and reading comprehension. The research tools were designed as 10 specific picture books taught in a 14-lesson course with oral storytelling, literacy exercises, plot discussions, and extended activities for full and planned guided reading instruction during the study. The qualitative data included responses to five open-ended interview questions. The results showed that the participants’ word power, oral performance, and reading comprehension improved after the lessons. To conclude, this study may help explain how guided reading instruction can increase EFL learners’ English skills.
