Reading skills
Hello,
I'd like to hear your opinion on how best to develop reading skills in a foreign language. The simplest answer is "just read more, something you are interested in," right? But can you learn to read in a bad way? I mean reading too carelessly, for example, or not being able to vary the reading speed according to the task at hand might be counterproductive.

I would say that you should have varied interesting material at hand. For example, you could use besides your textbook stories. Show them pictures and some important vocabulary from the story and have them guess the story.

Hey All...
I think that you should give your students short, interesting stories to keep reading...
you should too, to show them movies without translate to listen to the speaking....
and; they have to write the difficult words in a private notebook and memorize them
And that so easy; they will read easily
