It has been observed that intermediate pupils often find difficulty in dealing with issues related to reading comprehension. This makes teachers often think of supportive strategies to help their pupils better understand what they read. One of the group-based teaching strategies is Team Teaching Strategies which can be utilized to develop reading abilities among Iraqi EFL intermediate school pupils. Team Teaching Strategies are visual frameworks that assist pupils in digesting a text passage. To attain the purpose of the paper, 63 pupils were selected from Iraqi intermediate schools, distributed into 32 for experimental group, (received instruction using Team teaching strategies) and 31 pupils for the control group, (received instruction via authorized protocols. Pre- and post-test strategies were used by the researchers to assess the success of their approach. The paper reveals that Team Teaching Strategies play a great role in enhancing pupils to develop reading ability.
