Effective Actions Bridge the Gaps Between Policy & Practice

Time not set

Since the late 1990s, the acquisition of foreign languages—particularly English—has garnered significant attention both globally and within the Mongolian educational context. Despite this growing interest, achieving successful outcomes in English language learning remains challenging and, at times, stressful, often resulting in limited progress. In Mongolia, the need for effective English language teaching and learning strategies has become increasingly urgent. While national policies outline clear expectations for English proficiency, classroom realities often reveal a gap between these standards and practical implementation. Many students lack access to tools that facilitate the active use of English, including vocabulary development and reading practice. This paper explores effective practices in Extensive Reading (ER) activities that align with standardized English instruction. It argues that digital platforms such as Xreading.com play a vital role in bridging the gap between policy goals and classroom practices.
