Short Stories in English for Intermediate Learners

I use Olly's Short Stories in English to tutor students in English as a Second Language. His method of learning a foreign language by reading for pleasure on your level is brilliant and it works. If you follow the advice on how to how best to read this book as explained in the introduction, you WILL improve. After my students read to themselves first, they then read to me and we review the vocabulary words at the end of the chapter together, in addition, to correctly pronouncing any words they needed help with. Then, they read the chapter again with an even better understanding and they love it. They hear they're own progress and I remind them to listen out for similar conversational phrases that they've read in the book, in real life conversations around them. I also use Olly's Short Stories in Italian for myself and purchased the Spanish and French versions as I've become totally motivated to enhance my linguistic abilities overall. This book is absolutely terrific!

Súper

It has written in easy and everyday words so it would be very useful for foreignerswho wants to have a good command of English and even very amusing itself.There is an interesting correlation between the independent storiesin the middle of the book. I'm pretty sure it's writer's intentiontion andI found it very funny.

When you're an intermediate student in a language, learning resources become not only tough to find. They tend to be ...... boring!But this collection, which I was delighted to grab for my Kindle, has all the great features of other story collections by Olly that I've enjoyed in both Spanish and German. The stories use colloquial language so that you're getting exposure to the way people speak in situations that they actually live.Highly recommended. I have the print copy of his German short story book, so imagine this one looks just as cool as a paperback.

Short stories , easy language

As I was preparing for IELTS, this book helped me concentrate on keywords and phrases to pick the correct answer. This book had rich vocabulary which you can add to your collections. I would recommend this book to anyone who has thought of ways to improve his/her English with reading short stories.
