For some students, EFL (English Foreign Language) reading is one of the most
uninteresting subjects because it can make them bored easily. Kweldju (1996) found that
students were not interested in reading although they thought some texts books were useful
for their study. Meanwhile, English is a compulsory subject that must be studied by
Indonesian students. If they get bad to comprehend EFL reading, it means that their English
is still bad so that they cannot get the information from the reading text. The goal of the
teaching EFL reading in Indonesia is to comprehend the reading texts on which Indonesian
students must be able to read science-related texts written in English. This paper analyzes
some strategies such as metacognitive and extensive reading to make students enjoyable
when learning English reading
