Do college teachers read out loud to their students? This one does, and,
more, demands that students read out loud, too, not just the literature
we're reading, but samples of their own writing. I hear them stumble
constantly, not because they can't read, but because they've read so much
bad prose that they've learned--indeed, they've often been explicitly
taught--to skim. They need to be shown the value of each individual word,
and reading aloud is the quickest way.
