Beginning ESOL

The first A1 unit adapts the practice format of Be and Subject Pronouns, A Digital Workbook for Beginning ESOL by Eric Dodson, Davida Jordan and Timothy Krause, under CC BY 4.0. Explanations, sentences and exercises were rewritten for Talkinative.

Curriculum references

The original integrated curriculum consults CEFR descriptors, British Council–EAQUALS Core Inventory (A1–C1) and English Vocabulary Profile methodology for meaning-specific vocabulary. These references do not endorse or certify Talkinative. Their texts, exercises and media have not been reproduced.
