VIDEO Oxford Teaching Workshop Series, Sendai 2015

I really enjoyed presenting at the Sendai Oxford Teaching Workshop Series last Sunday. It was great to present on home ground, and we had a fantastic audience on the day.

My presentation was “Reading: the key 21st Century skill” and made the following points:

1. reading is very important, and should be part of all language courses
2. non-fiction is often neglected, but many learners prefer it and it is sometimes easier to understand
3. OUP has a nice range of non-fiction readers
4. how to include reading practice in your classes
5. how to design an extensive reading program
