Elizabeth Claire's Blog

Author and veteran teacher Elizabeth Claire tells why ESL Phonics for All Ages is one of the best resources for your English Language Learner.

ESL Phonics for All Ages meets the special needs of students with limited English and Students with Interrupted Formal Education (SIFE).

ESL Phonics for All Ages is completely different from the frustrating phonics books designed for native English speakers. It uses only useful words and useful sentences. Your ESL students and others will experience rapid success without frustration.

Audio input on CDs reads each word three times. Students can learn vocabulary and pronunciation as they progress in reading skills at their own pace. Reproducible answer pages let students self-correct and track their work.
