SUMMARY:Teaching Intensive & Extensive Reading Skills with Dorothy Zemach f
 ollowed by AGM
DESCRIPTION:We are proud and happy to have Dorothy Zemach\, stop by to have
  an event with us here in Stuttgart on her way to IATEFL Harrogate. Her to
 pic\, "Teaching Intensive &amp\; Estensive Reading Skills" is a very welco
 me one to us!\n\nTeaching reading can be challenging\, because students co
 nfuse “reading” with “literacy\,” and assume that once they can de
 code words—and know enough vocabulary—they’ll be proficient readers.
  However\, there are definite skills and strategies that successful reader
 s use to read faster\, understand better\, and remember more easily. This 
 workshop will focus on intensive reading skills for all stages of reading 
 (pre-reading\, during-reading\, and post-reading) that can be taught and p
 racticed in the classroom\, no matter what texts you are using. I’ll als
 o cover how to write questions and exercises to go with all stages of read
 ing\, which you can apply to your own texts.\nFinally\, we’ll explore di
 fferent ways to set up and carry out an extensive reading program so stude
 nts can work on reading fluency outside of class. We’ll discuss selectin
 g texts\, how to ensure the reading gets done\, progress checks\, and asse
 ssment.\nBio:\nDorothy Zemach taught ESL and other foreign languages for o
 ver 20 years\, in Asia\, Africa\, and the US. She holds an MA in TESL from
  the School for International Training in Vermont\, USA. Now she concentra
 tes on writing\, editing\, and publishing ELT materials and textbooks and 
 conducting teacher training workshops.\nHer areas of specialty and interes
 t are teaching writing\, teaching reading\, academic English\, testing\, a
 nd humor. She is a frequent plenary speaker at international conferences a
 nd is active on social media. In 2012\, Dorothy launched Wayzgoose Press\,

 ucational materials.\nELTAS Members –Please register via easyVerein. If
