In this paper, I will report on my practice of TADOKU (extensive reading) in Japanese using
NagoyaVoicy Novels Cabinet, a website that currently hosts over a hundred short stories available to read online. The subjects were advanced learners who are currently unable to come to Japan and are taking part in Japanese language courses through a one-term online exchange program. I mainly taught writing in the class, but also set aside time once a week for the students to organize book discussions based on their TADOKU. The purpose of introducing TADOKU was to provide students with a variety of Japanese language input, but also to keep them interested in Nagoya, where many of the stories are set, and to keep their hope of someday going there alive.
