This study aims at finding out the application of IRF discourse model on EFL University students' in reading comprehension (RC). To achieve the aim of the study, a quasi-experimental nonrandomized control, pretest-posttest design is employed. Two groups are randomly selected from the second class in College of Education for Women during academic year (2021-2022). The sample of the study included (60) students divided into (30) for control and (30) for experiment. The two groups are submitted to the same pretest in RC to ensure equivalence. Then the first group is taught according to of IRF discourse model, whereas the second group is taught according to the conventional method. After achieving the validity of the test, a pilot study is conducted to (30) students of College of Education for Humanity. Then the two groups are subjected to the same achievement post-test in RC. The data are analysed statistically that show that there are statistically significant differences between groups in achievement post-tests of RC, in favour of the experimental group
