Research Abstract |
In this research, we conducted a long-term extensive reading program at Toyota National College of Technology and confirmed the effectiveness especially to Japanese EFL learners. The students, who had read about 1,000,000 English texts, improved their English proficiency dramatically. Securing regular reading time and starting to read from extremely easy-to-read books are the critical factors to success.
