English as a Second Language (ESL) Provide fun activities to help students study English vocabulary, writing and spelling. Improve pronunciation and comprehension. Improve students' academic English as well as their social English. Make decisions on instruction based on individual student data. ESL teachers help their students to develop proficiency in all aspects of their English language use at one time, a huge task. These students do not have the luxury of having heard and spoken the language for years before they must read and write it. Pronunciation and Context for ESL Students VocabularySpellingCity utilizes both spoken and written English in games and activities, so students learning English can learn to pronounce words correctly. VocabularySpellingCity provides choice in word lists, so you can match the lists you use to each class or student. If you have a particular set of words you'd like your students to learn, simply create your own list on VocabularySpellingCity. Record Keeping for ESL
