Abstract: Metacognitive strategies are learning strategies that involve planning, self-monitoring, and self-evaluation. Metacognition is characterised as a build that alludes to considering one’s reasoning or the human capacity to be aware of one’s mental processes. According toFlavell (1976)metacognitive learning is ‘one’s learning concerning one’s own particular intellectual procedures and items or anything identified with them, e.g., the learning-applicable properties of data or information’. The purpose of the study is to investigate to what extent the university English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners employ metacognitive reading strategies in reading comprehension. Further, it aims to research the most used strategy of MARSI inventory subscale: reading performance in reading EFL. Statistical analysis has been calculated by using ANOVA, correlation, and metacognitive awareness reading strategy inventory (MARSI), which in fact is the self-report instrument. The study has identified that EFL students of Kosovo universities possess considerable amount of awareness over metacognitive strategies in reading comprehension.
