Welcome
The English program at FirstLetters.com is a reading based curriculum. We believe that it is essential for English students to learn how to read, as an immersion/activity based method for acquiring vocabulary and to provide the basis for a whole language approach to learning grammar.
For conversation we make use of functional dialogs that will allow students to complete basic day to day activities in English. Some examples include introducing a friend, or themselves. arranging to meet someone, and asking for a telephone number.
Our web-based interface is well suited to classroom use with a projector, and provides a time efficient method for teachers to provide homework and useful feedback. It also allows students and teachers to make paper copies of activities and learning aids such as cue-cards.
For English institutions it is efficient to add customized content using a well thought out template and database interface.
We take pride in the fact that our students are given a quick start in written English and that they build a foundation that will allow them to develop their writing skills. A class conducted using our system would resemble a typical English/reading comprehension program in a native speaking classroom, with additional cues and aids to allow second-language students to complete similar classwork.
