Abstract | After several years of study, many English as a foreign language (EFL) learners have a large enough vocabulary and sufficient reading fluency to silently read English stories and books outside class. Once students have reached this threshold, teachers can introduce and encourage independent reading in EFL courses, as there is rarely time in class for extensive reading. Teachers can select graded readers, printed books or e-books (some of which are available online for free), and shorter readings found on websites. The goal is to help students develop their English vocabulary, reading fluency, and reading comprehension through out-of-class reading. This article offers ideas for locating reading materials and suggests classroom activities to support students' independent reading and help them enjoy reading. (As Provided). |
