The data were obtained through multiple sources, including a learner diary, audio-recorded observations of ten DER sessions, and an interview with the learner’s father. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis, referencing Day and Bamford’s (1998) top ten principles of ER.</p> <p><strong>Findings</strong>: The findings revealed that eight ER principles could be effectively implemented in the young EFL learner’s DER experience, showcasing the learner’s positive attitudes towards reading and enhanced reading comprehension.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: Considering the result, the study recommends future studies to dig deeper into the effectiveness of DER across diverse learners by taking into account factors such as different ages, language proficiencies, learning styles, and technology access.</p> Zalva Fajhira Shabrina Putri Ika Lestari Damayanti Copyright (c) 2025 Zalva Fajhira Shabrina Putri, Ika Lestari Damayanti https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2025-04-19 2025-04-19 10 2 153 181 10.18196/ftl.v10i2.25269
