Methods of
Teaching Reading
Adilgalieva M.M.
Introduction
Reading is of great educational importance,
as reading is a means of communication,
people get information they need from
books, journals, magazines, newspapers, etc.
Through reading in a foreign language the
pupil enriches his knowledge of the world
around him. He gets acquainted with the
countries where the target language is
spoken.
Reading develops pupils’
intelligence. It helps to develop
their memory, will,
imagination. Pupils become
accustomed to working with
these books, which in its turn
facilitates unaided practice in
further reading.
