PresentERs - David Schneer: Extensive Reading in International Schools

Sunday, January 26, 2025 - 7:00pm to 8:00pm

We will have a short talk about Extensive Reading from David Schneer on Sunday 26 January 19:00-20:00. The event will involve a short 20-30 minute casual talk from our PresentER, followed by around 20-30 minutes of questions and discussion. PresentERs takes place on the last Sunday of each month online on Zoom. It is free for anyone to attend.

Although Extensive Reading is often discussed and implemented in English language learning programs in Japan, especially universities, it is less common in K-12 English medium international schools. David has set up Extensive Reading libraries throughout his career in international schools in Japan, Singapore and Indonesia. In this presentation he will discuss his experiences with ER in an international school context, including the successes, challenges and varied community perspectives.
