They were split into two equivalent groups represented Control Group (CG) and Experimental Group (EG) with thirty students each. To find out the upgrading of students‟ reading comprehension, pre-posttest and t-test were used. And to evaluate students’ attitude towards employing TBA in studying English and their complications within the medical context, a semi-structured questionnaire also was administered.
