Teaching Reading

Hi all,

I've just assigned to teach Reading in the next 2 months. Actually, for me this task is quite hard, as I've been a teacher of English for nearly 3 months only and used to teach basic English! This time, my students are last year students who major in English.

Can you help to share with me, how I should prepare for the lesson plan, how to teach Reading effectively and enjoyable? The textbook will be Reading part from IELTS. Will I give/ explain to the students all new vocabularies, translate where necessary, ask them to read loundly, or whatever I will do?

Much appreciate your sharing and time...

Hi

If you haven't seen it already there's a really interesting article on this site, by Dave Willis, all about reading. You can find it here:

http://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/think/articles/reading-information-mot...

You'll find lots of other ideas here too - just try typing 'reading' into the search box in the top right corner of this page. 

Good luck!
