Are you looking to build on your basic English skills? Our Elementary ESL Complete Course is just right for you if you’re ready to move beyond the beginner level.

This 100-lesson course is divided into four key sections: Grammar, Vocabulary, Reading and Writing, and Listening and Speaking exercises. All 4 study areas are synchronized with and reinforce each other, so for example, the words you learn in the a specific Vocabulary section are the same ones that will be used in the corresponding Listen and Repeat section.

To make sure you understand what you’re learning, there are comprehension exercises placed at regular intervals throughout the course. These exercises will help ensure and reinforce what you’ve just learned before moving on.
