description This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the enhanced Marungko approach for beginning readers in English on the reading literacy of Grade 2 pupils at Banicain Elementary School. The research focused on 81 Grade 2 pupils during the academic year 2022 - 2023 and investigated the level of reading literacy of pupils in English before and after the implementation of the enhanced Marungko approach, as well as the actual use of the approach. Mean scores, standard deviations, and paired T-tests were used as statistical tools for analysis. The results showed that the students had a basic level of competency in oral passage reading, reading comprehension, listening comprehension, and dictation before the improved Marungko approach was put into practice. After the treatment, the post test scores indicated a significant gain and that the learners maintained a consistent level of orientation to print. It is recommended to extend the implementation of the enhanced Marungko approach to first-grade levels to further enhance reading literacy among students. Teachers working with beginning readers are encouraged to recommend the use of the enhanced Marungko approach to other schools.
