Abstract This study aimed to determine the relationship between perceived reading strategies and motivation to read of students as mediated by teaching-reading comprehension of teachers. The researcher surveyed 300 public elementary school teachers in the Division of Tagum City, Davao del Norte. A quantitative research design employed a descriptive-correlational technique, and mediation analysis. A stratified random sample method and weighted mean, Pearson r, linear regression analysis, and medgraph using Sobel z-test were used to analyze the data. The findings revealed that the perceived level of students’ reading strategies and teaching-reading comprehension were very high, while the students’ level of motivation to read was high. There was a significant relationship between perceived students’ reading strategies and motivation to read, perceived students’ reading strategies and teaching-reading comprehension, and teaching-reading comprehension and perceived motivation to read of students. Moreover, the analysis revealed a significant partial mediation effect was observed, indicating that the mediator explains the relationship between reading strategies and motivation to read of students, while a significant direct effect persists.
