The difficulty is that it is easier said than done, especially when one uses authentic materials designed for native speakers. Whatever the text, pre-reading exercises must be carefully chosen and students must be prepared for key vocabulary items that will appear in the text. I have attempted to assist in vocabulary building by creating picture dictionaries and matching exercises based on...

Once in college, I continued to tutor in a volunteer capacity, going to a nearby New Jersey...
