Abstract: In the pursuit of the objectives, a qualitative case study is used to identify the factors that affect struggling readers of San Rafael-Agpo Elementary School. A total number of 11 struggling readers who met the criteria set in the study were interviewed in semi-structured interview using an open-ended interview guide questions about their experiences, and common problems they encounter that affect reading skills. The study identified the following factors: reading motivation, lack of parental involvement and support, school-based violence and bullying, lack of reading materials at home, and reading instructions that cause reading difficulties among intermediate grade pupils. Hence, the study propose that teachers should provide and implement more interactive teaching strategies to encourage reading motivation, inform parents of their child’s excessive number of missed classes and set up frequent meetings with parents, implement strong policies to address bullying and school-based violence, and to differentiate instruction to cater different learning needs.
