INTENSIVE AND EXTENSIVE READING

Main Article Content

Abstract:

Reading is one of the most fundamental skills in language learning. It allows learners to acquire knowledge, expand vocabulary, and improve comprehension. However, reading is not a uniform activity; it can be approached in various ways. Among the most discussed methods in second language acquisition are intensive reading and extensive reading. Both approaches aim to improve reading skills but differ significantly in purpose, method, and outcome. Understanding these approaches is essential for teachers, students, and researchers in designing effective reading programs. This article explores the definitions, characteristics, benefits, challenges, and practical applications of intensive and extensive reading.
