English as a Second Language

Level A 2

Welcome to Your ESL Level A 2!

Hello! My name is Peter Horton. I am so happy you are here. I have taught many students from all over the world. Now, I will help you learn English step by step. Learning English can be fun and easy!

On this website, you will learn English with pictures, stories, sounds, copying sentences, and making your own sentences. You will see the words, hear them, copy them, read them, and say them. You will learn English the same way we all learn our first language—by using it every day: seeing, hearing, speaking, and writing.

Here, you are the VIP learner. Every lesson is made for you, and every activity helps you become confident in English. This first unit will show you how we learn English, so you will know what to do in every lesson.

Mission Statement

This program uses input + output + innate learning, designed for A1 beginners.

Input (Visual Learning)

Auditory Input

  • You hear the word and sentence using text-to-speech or teacher modeling.

Output 1: SCS – Student Copy Sentence

Output 2: SMS – Student Make Sentence

  • You create your own sentence using the word. You practice grammar, vocabulary, and writing skills.

Innate/Embedded Learning

  • You learn grammar naturally by seeing and using real sentences.

Speaking Skills

  • You read aloud to practice pronunciation, rhythm, and fluency. This complete system helps you learn English in many ways at the same time.

How You Learn?

1. Learning the Rules (Part of Speech + Grammar Through Input)

Every word shows:

  • The word
  • The part of speech (noun, verb, adjective, pronoun…)
  • A simple definition
  • An example sentence

Students learn grammar and structure naturally by seeing the pattern.

2. Using the Language (Input → Output)

  • SCS: Student Copy Sentence

You copy the example sentence exactly.

This helps you:

  • Learn spelling
  • Learn word order
  • Learn punctuation
  • Learn grammar without memorizing rules
  • SMS: Student Make Sentence

3. Multisensory & Innate Learning

You learn English using all parts of your brain:

    • Visual: See words and pictures
    • Auditory: Hear the word and sentence
    • Kinesthetic: Copy the sentence (SCS)
    • Creative: Make your own sentence (SMS)
    • Oral: Read aloud

This makes English easy to remember.

We use:

  • Student-Centered Learning –You are the focus.
  • Community Learning-You learn together and help each other.
  • Task-Based Learning-You learn with real-world tasks.
  • Project-Based Learning-You make small projects about yourself.
  • Bloom’s Taxonomy-We grow from remembering → understanding → applying → creating.
  • Multiple Intelligences-We use pictures, music, stories, writing, and hands-on learning.

This way, every student succeeds.
