Reading helps, but if you’re trying to speak a language, you should speak it. While you’re reading, try mouthing the words, or reading aloud.
Yes, absolutely – reading is an incredible learning tool. It expands your vocabulary, helps with critical thinking, and lengthens your attention span.
Along with the obvious: being exposed to new ideas, new perspectives, different locales, different cultures. History, points of view, natural wonders, you name it!
Reading is one of the best things you can do for your brain.
Yes I think it does help.
By reading in the language you want to learn, not only do you expand your vocabulary, but also learn a lot of phrases or slang that might not be taught in the class. See how sentences are being formed and so on.
This is how I got from B1 to C1. Read as much as you can
Reading helps everything. If you are really passionate about English you might someday wind up at university in an English-speaking country. The thing that will help you the most at university is reading. So keep at it! Read as much as you can.
