About the Author
Dave Butler
My name’s Dave Butler. I’m an ESOL teacher and teacher trainer who’s passionate about teaching ESOL Literacy classes. I’ve been teaching this level for nearly 20 years but, even as an experienced teacher, I used to find that searching for and writing material, plus all the photocopying, took hours. I know from speaking to other teachers at this level that they experience the same difficulties.
I have compiled 20 years of material writing into the coursebook, ‘Read and Write every day.’ Not only can it boost learners’ literacy and numeracy level, but it also saves teachers hours in preparation time.
"Books that reflect students’ real-life experience."
I was so pleased to find a coursebook that was written for ESOL students and reflects their real-life experience. At this level you can’t really do too much repetition and reinforcement and that’s one of the things I really like about your books – they provide really good practice and consolidation. The content is also really relevant and engaging and caters well for the diverse needs of my learners.

“Makes planning much easier.”
I especially love how Read and Write every day combines and contextualises language and phonics into contexts that are relevant to the lives of our ESOL learners whilst also addressing their literacy needs. Several of our volunteer tutors have been using it frequently and have said how much easier it makes planning for them.
