    (Kaplan 2017) stated that experts at Harvard Business Review have discovered some tips and tricks to

    ensure that one shall not only make reading a daily habit, but should also able to radically increase the
    amount read and the benefits reap. Likewise, Stephen King who attributes reading to much of his
    incredible success as an author, reportedly told people to read about 5 hours a day if they want to
    follow in his footsteps.

    (Serious Reading 2018) enumerated various purposes of reading gives new knowledge by acquiring new
    information, ameliorates brain to prevent dementia and alzheimer’s disease, improves memory,
    imagination and communication skills, develops critical thinking skills, helps in getting better sleep, for
    entertainment and socialization. Reader’s Digest (2018) added that 30 minutes of reading a day can
    prolong life by two years more than those who do not read at all.

    (Clark and Douglas 2012) found out that there is a relationship between reading frequency and
    attainment. in their survey of 17,000 young people found that those who were at or above the expected
    reading level for their age read more frequently than young people who are below the expected level
    for their age. Clark (2012) found only one in 10 young people who read rarely or never read scored
    above the level expected for their age compared with one in three of young people who read every day.
    PIRLS also reports a positive relationship between frequency of reading for pleasure and scores on PIRLS
    literacy tests.

    (Ma, Y. & Lin, W. 2015) said that among many variables investigated in some studies, reading
    achievement plays a key role in reading comprehension and was found to have a significant and positive
    correlation with vocabulary knowledge. As such, successful reading frequency appears to be one of the
    prerequisites for vocabulary improvement.

    (Corayag, Cuevas, Frias et al. 2018) in their study Relationship Between Reading Frequency and
    Vocabulary Among Garde 12 Students in St. Joseph College of Cavite, they deemed necessary to conduct
    because it might help the students ages 16-18 years old to be fully aware and understand the
    relationship between reading frequency and vocabulary improvement. Students might think of spending
    more time reading in order to gain vocabulary knowledge. General Statement This correlational study
    aimed to determine the relationship between reading frequency and vocabulary.
