STAY RELEVANT AND UPDATED WHILE YOU LEARN LANGUAGE SKILLS
READ AND PROCESS FRONT-PAGE NEWS FROM LEADING BUSINESS NEWSPAPERS
FRESH CONTENT OFFERED EACH WEEKDAY, APPROXIMATELY 240 LESSONS A YEAR!
When we read an English sentence, most of us translate word by word subconsciously and we pay too much attention to grammar and details. We need to read English as English and, apart from this so-called "reason reading," we need to catch the gist quickly and understand the message of the writer.
Every day, a typical IN-Scholar lesson offers a selection of front-page news from top class economic magazines and websites. Each article has audio recorded in the voice of a Native American. Articles used for the lesson are adjusted and edited to a level of difficulty and length suitable for each individual’s English level. One lesson lasts about 20 minutes. Users can study at their own pace and time.
IN-Scholar not only provides lessons based on news articles, but also includes study tasks such as Pre-Reading Activities and Reading Activities. In the process of practicing these study tasks, users learn to grasp the theme of each article and at the same time improve their reading proficiency naturally through constant reading and by listening to the audio.
Users can check at any time how many articles they have read and see where they are in the learning flow. Moreover, each quiz can be analyzed bit by bit to identify areas where they need to pay more attention. They can see immediately the types of problems they are not good at and find hints to improve their weaknesses.
You may choose your own level manually. Prior to reading an article, you need to go through the Pre-Reading section.
You will be presented with an article with audio support, and that will be followed by a quiz on comprehension.
To improve your reading comprehension, we will ask several questions about the article.
You can view your study record for each lesson. You can check at any time how many articles you have read and see where you are in the learning cycle
We will time your reading speed each time you read the main article. An ideal reading speed is 150 or 200 words per minute. (WPM)
If you learn a lesson, you get points. If you do not, you will lose them.
You can check your results visually. All the data including reading speed (WPM) will be available in this section. A historical chart will tell you how much you have improved your reading skills.
You will get a score based on your performance and receive medals when you complete certain stages.
A program to develop comprehension and communication skills
In IN-Scholar, the “Read” section is divided into three steps, where each activity corresponds to a purpose in the learning process. Unlike conventional methods using mere grammatical translation, information is deliberately selected, its worth and merit carefully assessed and "critical reading" skills are developed. True effective business-related "aptitude to read information" can then be achieved. The “critical reading" that IN-Scholar advocates is an assertive approach toward the selection and evaluation of information.
The registration procedure is very easy. Register your ID, follow the payment procedure, and immediately get access.
We would recommend this unique program to anyone still hesitant to take full advantage of this opportunity: those who want to study English but are not sure what kind of materials they should use; those who would like to read various global business media but think that might be too difficult for them.
