From Reader to Reading Teacher is a self-contained, student-centered methods text that connects reading theory to practical classroom activities. The book begins by leading teachers to explore their beliefs and assumptions about the nature of reading and to analyse their own personal reading strategies. By studying the factors that influence both native language and second language reading, the text prepares teachers for a critical examination of the pedagogical issues central to the reading classroom. Teachers learn how to select appropriate reading activities and to plan effective reading lessons. Written in clear, understandable language, this text provides a wealth of examples and exercises, making it ideal for introductory courses on the teaching of second language reading.
