Abstract
The goal of this study was to see the effectiveness of the reading tutorial program in increasing children reading ability with low socioeconomic status. The reading tutorial program provides a variety of chances to practice and do activities in reading. This program was expected to enhance the children’s reading ability. The focuses of enhancement in the children’s reading ability were: (1) sight word acquisition and (2) reading fluency. The subjects of this research were first grade students with poor reading ability and low socioeconomic status. This research used an Untreated Control Group Design with pretest and posttest. The result of this study shows that the reading tutorial program is effective in increasing children’s reading ability in sight word acquisition (SW) and fluency in word correct per minute (WPM).
