Description

In this episode, I give you 8 reasons you should be reading in your target language.
In this episode:

Reading slows down the language
It's great for introverts who aren't comfortable speaking
You can learn less common vocabulary
You can significantly increase your vocabulary range by extensive reading
It's cheap! (Cheaper than teachers, or travelling!)
Sense of achievement
Immersion in a foreign world
It's fun, which builds an emotional attachment to the language
