Top 5 Ways How Reading can Help ESL Students to Improve Their Target Language.

  1. Reading materials are written by those experts in the writing area. ESL student can adapt the same writing style by the professional in their essay in ESL classrooms for example on how to start a good introduction and how to organize important contents.
  2. A good reading material is always perfected with smooth flow of sentences and grammar. This way student can learn about the rules of grammar itself while reading and may utilize the correct usage in ESL activities for example Speaking and Writing especially.
  3. ESL students may use some of the examples or interesting facts stated or repeated in reading materials for their ESL activities. A very resourceful reading material such as English newspaper may come handy at time.
  4. Besides that, ESL students can also utilize related interesting pictures shown in most reading materials in helping them in ESL presentations. Most people (including myself) love to see pictures and after all pictures do tell a thousand words.
  5. Other than helping themselves, ESL students can also help other ESL learners by referring them to the useful reading materials that they have read. Sharing is caring.
