What is it?

« Reading large amounts of materials for general
understanding »
(Day and Bamford 1998)

second language over time for personal pleasure or
interest, and without the addition of productive tasks

Hafiz and Tudor (1989)



“Reading in which learners read large
quantities of material that is within their
linguistic competence”
Grabe and Stoller (2002)

academic reasons”.
(Day and Bamford 1998)

MATE 6th Management
Seminar, Nov. 12


"Extensive reading means reading in quantity
and in order to gain a general understanding of
what is read. It is intended to develop good
