Practice pages for adult ESL classes: literacy centers to community colleges
Adult learners arrive with limited time, varied schedules and phones as their main device. Practice has to be quick to open and clearly useful. A single link that works on any phone is often the difference between practice that happens and practice that does not.

Practical, everyday topics
