Speaker: Junko Yamanaka, Trident College of Languages, Nagoya

To become good readers, it is important for your students to learn and practice vocabulary and reading strategies. It is even more important that they enjoy reading so that they will keep on reading throughout their lives. How is it possible? Find keys in Cover to Cover, which offers a unique approach to teaching reading, combining intensive and extensive reading.

Junko Yamanaka is on the Board of Directors of the Extensive Reading Foundation and is author of many books including Cover to Cover 1 (OUP), which she co-authored with Richard Day. She has taught many years at Trident College of Languages, Nagoya, where she contributed in setting up an ER program in 1987.
