المستخلص

This article presents an overview of the Reader-Response Approach and its significance in personalizing the reading experience in contexts of teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL). Stressing the active role of the reader, this approach motivates students to personally engage with texts, cultivating their own viewpoints, feelings, memories, experiences, associations and interpretations into the reading process, which makes it meaningful to them. The paper outlines the benefits of teaching literature in EFL classes, emergence and key principles of Reader-Response Approach. Furthermore, the paper sheds light on the Reader-Response strategies and activities that can be effectively implemented in the classroom. Besides, the different kinds of students’ responses to literary works are discussed and classified. Despite the significant influential benefits of the Reader-Response Approach in the EFL classroom, it still raises considerable challenges about which thoughtful research work is urgently needed. It is recommended that curriculum designers and educationalists cultivate Reader-Response into English curricula so that the uniqueness of learning can be emphasized. Moreover, researchers should conduct a good deal of research work to overcome the challenges and barriers of the Reader-Response Approach.
