Abstract

Reading has an important role in learning English. English is a universal language that is widely used in several countries to communicate. Different methods of teaching reading have been used to raise students' ability levels. To ensure students' level of understanding and the efficacy of using the application to improve students' reading habits, Researchers conducted research using the help of web-based media, namely the wordwall.net application as an easy and interactive learning medium. This research shows that the students' average score on the pre-test was 73.65, and after being given treatment, the students' scores increased on the post-test by 85.19. Nevertheless, this medium has not been used with younger students. As a result, researchers have the chance to create fresh concepts for the educational process that will stimulate students' interests and make it more varied and creative.
