Abstract

Quality of instruction is important in determining a student's achievement in mastering a skill learned. Quality teachers must have high skills in content knowledge and pedagogical knowledge including teaching strategies. Therefore, this study aims to review the literature related to teachers' teaching practices in an effort to improve the level of mastery of basic reading skills among students at the primary school level. The review involved an analysis of previous studies that focused on teaching strategies and teaching aids used by teachers. The results of the analysis of 30 previous studies using the Scopus, WoS and Google Scholar databases have identified several best practices that can be used as a guide for teachers in improving teaching practices. The results of this literature review are expected to provide a comprehensive view of teachers' practices in teaching basic reading skills to low-achieving students in Malay Language subjects involving remedial students, LINUS students, students with special educational needs (SENS) and Orang Asli students. Teachers' teaching practices have implications for the quality of teaching in line with the requirements of the Malaysian Teacher Standards (SGM2.0) and student achievement in the Malaysian Education Development Plan (PPPM) 2013-2025. Therefore, the professional development of teachers through continuous training and adequate resource support plays an important role in ensuring that quality teaching can be implemented to contribute to improving the quality of education in Malaysia.
