This study analyzed factors influencing elementary students' basic reading skills enhancement from teachers' perspectives, focusing on the impact of digital environment changes and diverse learning methods. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the research unfolded in two phases: analysis of students' Korean language scores and a teacher survey on reading skill improvement factors, followed by teacher interviews based on survey outcomes. Teachers identified three main factors contributing to the improvement of students' basic reading skills: strengthening teamwork through regular learning, lesson planning, and mutual support among teachers; sharing students' incremental achievement assessment results within the grade to identify areas of growth; and setting continuous improvement of reading skills and literacy enhancement as a primary goal at the school level. These findings indicate that teachers prioritize team-based learning and collaboration. Enhancing basic reading skills requires strengthening teacher collaboration, sharing achievement insights to identify growth areas, and establishing literacy improvement as a school-wide goal, necessitating specific educational strategies and policies.
