MS T.E.A.M.S: A Recovery Approach in Improving English Reading Speed and Accuracy

This study investigated the effectiveness of MS T.E.A.M.S (Microsoft supports Teachers in Engaging, Assessing, and Monitoring Students) in improving reading speed and accuracy among Grade 11 Technical Vocational and Livelihood (TVL) students at Marigondon Senior High School. Over ten weeks, the intervention utilized Microsoft Reading Progress (MS-RP) to provide personalized reading practices and continuous assessment. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining Linear Regression for quantitative analysis of participants’ reading scores and Thematic Analysis for qualitative insights from student interviews. Results showed positive effects on reading speed and accuracy, with most participants showing improvement. Active engagement was crucial for skill development, though some students needed additional support. While the intervention had favorable outcomes, areas for improvement were identified. The study highlights the importance of using MS T.E.A.M.S, and MS-RP to tailor interventions for struggling readers. In conclusion, the research confirms the efficacy of the Reading Intervention Program using MS-RP in enhancing reading proficiency among Grade 11 TVL students. Sustained participation is vital, and further enhancements are available to support students requiring extra assistance. This study provides valuable insights and recommendations for enhancing English reading fluency through technology-assisted interventions in educational contexts.
