Recently many learning theorists have advocated teaching students to use a variety of reading strategies or skills in order to read better. The success of recent studies involving the explicit training of children in the comprehension strategies in L1 reading suggests the feasibility of improving L2 students' reading comprehension. This study aims to explore the effects of word guessing strategy instruction on reading comprehension. 76 Japanese high school students (29 boys and 47 girls) in two groups engaged in different reading lessons for three months: one group took reading lessons planned by grammar translation method and the other got the explicit word guessing strategy training. The results of the post-reading comprehension test and the post-word guessing test indicated that the word guessing strategy training had an influence on reading comprehension and that the ability of guessing the meaning of unfamiliar words extended significantly at .01 level. This suggests that word guessing strategy training can be a facilitative approach to improving Japanese students' reading comprehension.
