One of the barriers to reading aloud in class:

It's enjoyable

So we think it can't be work

But it IS work

Not everything has to be difficult

Very happy to be featured in emag plus! Discussing approaches to The Vegetarian (Han Kang) and Death and the Maiden (Dorfman) for IB students.
April emagazine is online TODAY, and in schools later this month. Fabulous articles incl one by Prof Nicolas Tredell on the literary world in which 'Gatsby' emerged, in time for the 100th anniversary of its publication on 10th April! www.englishandmedia.co.uk/emc-magazines/

An interesting study on
vocabulary learning for EFL learners found that tasks like composition writing and sentence rewording led to greater vocabulary gains, supporting the depth of processing theory.
