第7回:Rob Waring教授  My research area

My research interests are varied and wide.  My main research area is how people learn languages. In particular I research how people learn vocabulary and how they can improve their language ability by reading a lot of books or texts at their level of understanding. My Ph.D. was looking at how we measure how a person's vocabulary knowledge develops over time. But recently, my interest has been in building reading associations and training institutes in South East Asia, especially Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia and Cambodia.  I work with governments, schools and universities to help build national systems to train teachers how to teach students to read well. I recently published an academic book for teachers explaining how to develop a reading program and how to conduct research into how people read, how to motivate students and so on.
 

Rob’s achievements

On 21st April, I gave a lecture to teachers at the English Language Institute, Chulalongkorn University, known as the most prestigious university in Thailand, about “How teachers should teach vocabulary based on what research says”. 170 teachers attended the talk and requested a second talk on July 10th.
