Extensive reading is approach to the teaching of language which involves reading a lot of books. You'll also may learn some new words and understand their meaning in the different or certain contexts. It differs from the other kind of reading that we do in our English lessons because you have to read books that are at your level of understanding, there is no questions or test about it. You'll read for your own pleasure. When you are reading a book at your level it makes your reading more fluent and your reading skills become better. You'll enjoy what you read!
Some of the main characteristics of extensive reading are that you have to choose a book at your level and what interests you. It is better if you read constantly. Extensive reading also focuses on understanding and information.
I think that extensive reading is good for me because it improves my English and makes my reading in a foreign language more fluent and I understand the text in certain context better. The benefits of extensive reading are that it develops learner's autonomy, the more you read the better reader you will become, vocabulary improves, not only reading but also speaking and writing skills improve and motivation increases.
