This paper is aimed to discuss corrective feedback in oral reading skills. It mainly focuses on the role of transitions and conjunctions in texts and questions the conditions of efficacy of corrective feedback for the development of reading skill among 4 language skills. It discusses what corrective feedback is, what kind of types there are, and which type should be preferred mostly for the best result. Swain (1985), Pica (1988) and Pica, Holliday, Lewis and Morgenhaler (1989) provided that corrective feedback techniques lead to modified output and self-repair are more likely to improve learners' ability to monitor their output and lead to IL development. As it is a very dynamic subject, there are a lot of claims by the leading linguists such as Gass, Long, Krashen, Schachter, Varonis, Ellis and Schmidt. By dealing with their significant approaches to it in the light of various empirical and theoretical researches, its impact and issues related to it will be examined.
