A1 Reading Practice for English Learners

Explore these A1 English texts to practice your reading skills. Each text includes comprehension questions, audio, and a PDF for personal or classroom use. A1 texts are for ESL beginners who are just beginning to learn the language. An A1 learner might know a few words or phrases, but they have never had an English conversation and need a lot of support and guidance.
