Oxford Bookworms
Oxford Bookworms is a seven-stage graded readers ELT series offering over 200 adapted and original English texts for secondary and adult students. The series begins with the Starter Stage and goes through to Stage 6. Students seeking to extend their English language skills can do so through extra reading at a language level that is appropriate. Because of this, Oxford Bookworms are written to a carefully designed language syllabus.
Oxford Progressive English Readers
Penguin Readers
Penguin Readers is a series of simplified novels, film novelizations and original titles that introduce students at all levels to the pleasures of reading in English. Originally designed for teaching English as a foreign language, the series' combination of high interest level and low reading age makes it suitable for both English-speaking teenagers with limited reading skills and students of English as a second language. Many titles in the series also provide access to the pre-20th century literature strands of the National Curriculum English Orders. At the end of each book there is a section of exercises focusing on vocabulary building, comprehension, discussion and writing. Penguin Readers are graded at seven levels of difficulty, from 'Easystarts' with a 200-word vocabulary, to Level 6 (Advanced) with a 3000-word vocabulary. In addition, titles fall into one of three sub-categories: 'Contemporary', 'Classics' or 'Originals'.
