As far as massive amounts of compelling comprehensible input are concerned, I organized a class library of graded readers organised by levels with students being guided towards reading their favourite genres as the catalogues of each level were organised into the same genres as on the questionnaire they had answered and talked about in the first week

Once again I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this and recorded my thoughts frim time to time on points made. I side more with Peter Skehan than with Mike Long as the firsts sound applicable to more language learning situations around the world, which are for mo specific purpose. Since this recording was made advances in Speech to Text software and GenAI have made it easy for every student in the class to get individual feedback on what they said and what they might have said.
