Nora Nagy

I’m an English Language and Literature teacher and I also edit and write activities for readers. I'm also a PhD student in Applied Linguistics/TESOL, and my research area is social semiotic multimodality and language/literacy education, with a special focus on visual narratives in literacy and thinking development.
I believe that telling and reading stories shapes our personalities in the most magical way. Reading is a powerful educational tool: students can explore the world, master languages in all kinds of magical situations and have fun at the same time. Good readers make excellent speakers and writers. I always read a variety of books at the same time, and I love fiction and poetry just as much as I love reading about the visual arts. I believe in slow reading because this way I can enjoy my favourite books even more.
