Being launched by an ESL (English as a second language) teacher with over twenty five years of teaching experience in three countries, this website will be a venue that teaches students while giving them an opportunity to express themselves in an interactive way.
We will provide regularly updated materials, including our books “The testimony of the Main Witness”, “The main Witness Returns” and others, which contain suspenseful stories with accompanying exercises for high and intermediate learners of ESL. The readers will give their feedback and comments back to us.
In addition, we will give them regular topics for discussions, such as the analysis of their cars and homes, comparisons between their native customs and traditions and the American ones etc. so that they can submit short essays and photographs on the given subjects. It will allow them to express themselves in English from their homes at their convenience, as well as interact with other students and the website creators.
We see this website as a constantly evolving entity. its content will depend greatly on the readers’ choices and recommendations. the stories and discussions will revolve around the most topical issues that the newcomers in America meet every day. therefore, it will be equally beneficial for both the ones who build their new lives in the U.S., and the ones who are just interested in learning more about American culture. It will be regularly updated and carefully maintained. It will be educational and helpful, as well as entertaining and exciting. “ESL Reader” will teach, amuse and encourage the learners to do what’s most important in learning ESL: be actively involved in the learning process.
