The Effect of Homonym-Focused Interventions on Reading Skills among A1–A2 EFL Learners

Vocabulary and reading comprehension play integral roles in understanding English materials for beginners. This study developed and tested a dedicated task book and an interactive game to evaluate their efficacy in helping A1–A2 level learners master homonyms—words that have more than one meaning or sound the same but are spelled differently.The main aim was to help students better understand texts, correctly comprehend homonyms in context, and build their homonym vocabulary. To address this, pre- and post-tests were conducted, supported by a literature review and PICO analysis to structure the study and interpret the results.The findings suggest that learning difficulties can be mitigated through the use of a homonym task book and an interactive game, allowing students to improve their vocabulary and enhance their reading comprehension.
