Skill Building for ESL and Special Education Reviews

The new educational program called Simply English is a wonderful new contribution to the resources available for the increasing number of students striving to master the challenging English language. Much thought has gone into the design of this ESL curriculum. Important attention has been paid to the most useful everyday situations that will test the developing English skills of students tackling English as a second language. Of special interest to me are two things: first, the program is adaptable for elementary through adult learners, and second, Dr. Clark has wisely added the often neglected skill of listening to the more obvious skills of reading and writing as essential to the program. I recommend Simply English as a tool to ESL educators. -- T. Compagno, ESL middle school instructor, California
As an ESL teacher of middle school learners, I struggled to find resources that truly meet the needs of my students, most of whom are just beginning to read and write in English. The Simply English series, however, has proven to be a goldmine and the flexibility of each unit has allowed the students to work at their own pace. If you teach students with limited language skills, this book is a must-have. -- C. Svetcov, ESL Middle School teacher
A highly relevant and useful ESL/Special Education series. The Simply English topical approach program is exactly what I needed for my ESL/Special Education students. The dialogue between 2 people about different situations of American life is an excellent way to improve pronunciation and confidence in speaking. The vocabulary at the beginning of each unit is the perfect starting place for the beginning and/or immediate level writer. -- J. Gordon, ESL/Special Education instructor, San Francisco, California
The Simply English series is exactly what I have been looking for in an ESL program. I teach elementary school and many of my students are the only somewhat proficient English speaker in their family. Their parents count on them for translation of their language into English. The topical vocabulary and situational exercises are a great help to the student when a translator is needed for medical visits, grocery shopping and other everyday necessities. To accompany the Simply English Student Text, the Simply English Student Workbook exercises have allowed my students to gain confidence in their speech and in their writing. -- K. Lau, ESL elementary school instructor
