Why should everyone must learn how to read? It is a fact that in order a child learn they must be reader. One will not be able to learn fully if they are not a reader. But what is a reader. A reader is the one that can read fast the words correctly and most importantly can comprehend. If one can read fast but cannot comprehend they will not be considered a reader.

            There are times that question ask such as “Why a child cannot answer questions correctly?”,” Why a child always got low score in a test?”, maybe the root cause isthey do not understand very lesson taught in school because they do not understand what they read or they really can’t read.

            People around them should extend a helping hand to make all this children a reader. Reading is necessary to make them learn. Parents and School should have a program that will deal with the enhancing of reading among children. It is nobody’s fault. Children are young and they can be molded the way we want them to be molded. Encouragement and follow up of the parents to the reading ability of their children is also a tool to make their child a reader.

            If a child is a reader, everything follows in uplifting their learning.
