  1. 6 Benefits Of Extensive Reading For English Language Students

  2. 1. Students Become Better Reader It is pretty obvious that extensive reading turns students into better readers. Research shows that we learn to read by reading. Learning how to read should be given primary attention rather than the language of the text. This gives a chance to incorporate new vocabulary which is an integral part of reading. The more the students read, the better readers they become.

  3. 2. Students Improve Writing Students who buy books online for reading, develop writing proficiency. Reading inculcates the habit of writing and nourishes their writing skills with the inclusion of new words. They gain language mechanisms which they can produce in their writing for better content.

  4. 3. Students Learn More Vocabulary Reading leads to the learning new words and phrases. We know that vocabulary is not learned by a single exposure. Students need to come across a wide variety of texts to get acquainted with new vocabulary to enrich their word stock. Students are unlikely to gain vocabulary skills within a classroom. Hence, reading extensively privately will develop their vocabulary.

  5. 4. Students Improve Overall Language Competence Apart from developing reading and writing skills, extensive reading improves overall language competence. Research shows that reading extensively improves listening and speaking abilities within individuals. Reading extensively develops language skills in every possible aspect in addition to writing and reading capabilities.

  6. 5. Students Become More Motivated To Read When students find out that they enjoy reading, it becomes highly motivating for them. This makes it important that books are interesting to students and their reading ability. If students find interesting books with compelling stories, they become more eager and motivated readers. This boosts their self-confidence and self-esteem as extensive readers.

  7. 6. Students Develop Learner Autonomy. Students become autonomous learners when they read extensively. Buy books online to develop learner autonomy so that you can read anywhere and at any time. To promote learner autonomy, extensive reading should be a student-managed activity. This means that students should decide what, where and how to read their favorite books to become voracious readers.
