Abstract

This study investigates the role of reading in French language among students of French, Adeyemi Federal University of Education, Ondo. A mixed-method approach was employed using questionnaires administered to 45 students. Findings revealed that reading enhances vocabulary acquisition, grammatical understanding and overall language proficiency, although students face challenges in accessing relevant French reading materials. The study recommends increased provision of French reading materials, incorporation of reading activities by lecturers and promotion of regular reading habits.
