Elaheh Rezvani TEFL Information Alumni Experiences Among the four main language skills, reading is considered to be influential in the process of language acquisition.

Our mother is the first one to speak to us in her native language and as we grow we are constantly exposed to words, expressions, and conversations that we take in and start to understand in our everyday life.

We are introduced to written language. This rite of passage is as normal as it´is expected to be, but we must take into account something that in the last couple of decades has become part of this experience; the simultaneous learning of a foreign language. This idea makes me wonder, if...  [Read more]
