About
The founder of PERC (Publink Extensive Reading Club). With over 20 years of experience in ELT (English Language Teaching) materials and readers, I have been actively promoting extensive reading since 2013. In 2018, I established the PERC in China, which is affiliated with the Extensive Reading Foundation (ERF). My mission has always been to create a platform for academic exchange among English reading educators, to promote both international and domestic graded readers, and to continuously refine more effective learning solutions for young learners in foreign language contexts.Sessions
