Read your way to better English Engage, educate and take your students’ English further with an Oxford reader! Using an Oxford Reader in class has many benefits for teachers and students: ◆ ◆ ◆
◆
Readers reinforce the acquisition of language presented in class, building students’ confidence in reading. They provide reading material adapted to the students’ level. They consolidate reading through listening as many of Oxford readers come with an audio CD or MultiROM with a recording of the story. They help teachers to monitor the students’ progress with free tests, answer keys and activities.
Oxford University Press offers graded readers in an extensive range of levels to suit every teacher’s needs.
Whatever the genre or the level you are looking for, Oxford Readers can provide the perfect choice of reader. Schools
