About
us.
Linguapress.com is a portal for teachers and learners of
English as a
foreign language (EFL) and English as a second language (ESL). Our main
aim is to offer a range of free
online
resources for teachers and
students; These resources include:
- (a)
a selection of articles and short stories in graded
and simplified
English, accompanied by vocabulary notes and ideas for the
classroom;
- (b) thematic crosswords in graded English, and other
word
games;
- (c) clear explanations of some of the main points of
the English
language,
grammar, syntax and other aspects of language; and finally
- (d) some
other
pages with information for teachers and students of English as a
foreign language, including studying English in England, choosing an
English language school, the story of English, and more.
Founded in 1980 - Linguapress began life as an independent EFL (English
as a
Foreign Language) publisher
and bookshop based in France. Linguapress
EFL
newsmagazines, published from 1980 to 2001, had readers in high schools
and further education all
over Europe, notably in France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Austria,
Switzerland and Norway... and as far away as Japan and Mongolia. In the
pre-Internet era, before the World Wide
Web put worldwide news in any language into every school at the click
of a mouse, Linguapress newsmagazines in graded English offered
teachers and students the unusual ability to keep abreast of the
current affairs from the English-speaking countries.
Linguapress.com
was set up in 1998 to publish and develop material from the Linguapress
archives, add new material, and make it available to teachers and
students worldwide.
While a lot of the material initially published between 1980
and 2001 in Linguapress magazines was current-affairs based, and is now
largely outdated, the magazines also published a large collection of
background and cultural articles on life and issues in the English
speaking countries – not to mention word games and crosswords
and a number of original short stories.
This archive
of articles, together with the classroom teaching material
to accompany it, is the bedrock of the new Linguapress.com. In
the course of time, Linguapress.com will also develop as a directory of
resources for EFL
teachers and for students and teachers of British and American
area studies.
