Abstract: This research examined the effect of multimedia on developing reading comprehension and creative thinking skills of English language among second year middle school students. Forty participants were randomly selected from Hala Middle School, Dakahlia Governorate, Egypt in the academic year 2019-2020. This study was conducted according to the pre-test- and post-test-based two group quasi-experimental model. Therefore, the participants were randomly divided into two groups (20 each). One group was selected as experimental group and the other as control group. The experimental group was taught using the multimedia while the control group received regular teaching. According to the results, the students supported by the multimedia were more successful than students supported only by traditional teaching method. Therefore, the multimedia positively affected developing reading comprehension and creative thinking skills among EFL students. Finally, the use of the multimedia increased the students' motivation in learning EFL.
