[clevermae]

So useful thread! How about having some fun here like "game" the most exciting part is when your playing while learning.

Reading is just a complex task! I remember my experiences during my British and Literature classes that I had to analyze novels, short stories, poems and discriminate the figurative language and etc... in MY case doing that was so annoying for me . On the other hand, during that process, I realized that everytima I had to read, I used my dictionary... it really worked. Conclusion: Reading and using a Dictionary help you to increase and improve your vocabulary as well as your fluency reading English.

Let's write something ... what should we read and why (newspaper, magazine, comics, book or poem ... etc) ? The advantages and disavantages? Should we read to catch the content only or should we write down all new words or something else? ...

Many of my students shy away from reading. Mostly because of all the new words they see which they feel threatened by. I tell them to read the whole paragraph first and write down any meaning they understood from the paragraph, then to circle all the new words they did not know.

I tell them to look for their meanings and see if the whole context / meaning of the paragraph changed. :)

Being native Portugese, I have been learning English very effective and in an interesting way via Skype on English courses,
If you doubts, you should try, indeed;)
I tried to learn English on busuu | Learn Spanish, French, English and other languages for free by myself, but I lacked some power of will. Now I’m studying at myenglishdom.com and everything seems to be fine. I can see the progress.

When reading, you have to familiarize the correct pronunciation of words. You also have to master the correct phrasing when reading. Intonation also plays a vital role. You can also seek help and guidance with an English tutor.

Try to read the book o table or chair with taking a cup of tea and little break.
It helps to stay away from sleep.

As a teacher, I often hear that people have trouble reading in English because they don't have the patience. They read slowly, many words are unfamiliar to them, and because of that, they stop reading altogether. I think this will be very helpful to them. thank you.

I have read an article stating that a study was done on which people learned to write in a language only by reading. It means we can acquire writing skills only by reading. I started reading in German and it actually worked

[NicolePan]

According to my learning experience, I think there are several reading tips : first is the ability to guess the meaning of words based on the context, which can help you perceive the meaning of the paragraph; the second is the ability of parallel-reading. Reading with questions and key words helps you to grasp the answers and improve reading efficiency.

Wow! I am very happy to join this effective discussion with English reading tips and techniques. I have learned some important reading techniques from this useful thread. Thank you everyone!

I tell my pupils to read the entire sentence if they don't comprehend a word or words, the paragraph if they don't understand a phrase, etc., regardless of their reading ability (I don't pay much attention to this distinction). They should try to simply reread the pages in the same manner if, after reading a few pages, they still don't comprehend a single word. They will only search for the crucial terms if this doesn't work. Word meanings are frequently clarified by their context. It is only visible after reading a passage of text twice or even three times. And reading lengthy passages is preferable: No writer ever fully employs the language's phrases and idioms; there are those that individuals only use sometimes. You can learn a lot about an author by their language when preferred phrases and expressions appear often in various circumstances. This aids in teaching readers to love reading and to grasp terms without having to seek them up. The challenge is getting pupils to keep going forward, but that's what teachers are usually there to do.

Good thing I came here. You can find a lot of interesting things

One piece of advice I have for teaching reading, patience.

Patience gives the reader confidence to try and make errors. Always give them the tools they need to try and read independently, such as enhancing their phonetic knowledge.

Sight words also place a huge role in fluency.
