Research-Oriented Short Presentation
Slash reading is a method for understanding a text by putting slashes where one thought begins and ends. It is considered a helpful method for English learners because they can read a passage in small segments. Given my students’ difficulty with this method, I will argue that the concept of “thought groups” is the key to its successful use and propose ways to enhance their understanding of this concept.
