Adult ESL/Literacy from the Community to the Community: A Guidebook for Participatory Literacy Training tells the story of a university-community collaboration to develop, implement, and evaluate a project designed to train immigrants and refugees as adult ESL and native literacy instructors in their own communities. Beyond the story of this one project, the book is also a clear and powerful explication of the underlying principles and premises of the program model it describes: community leadership development, a participatory approach to literacy instruction and instructor training, native language adult literacy instruction, and collaboration.

Essay from the year 2020 in the subject Pedagogy - Adult Education, grade: A, , course: English Languge, language: English, abstract: In this paper it is going to be discussed about the principles of teaching reading, the challenges adults face when reading as well as some effective English reading strategies from adult learner’s perspective and some strategies along with reading activities. Reading is essential to the development of second language competence. People acquire listening and speaking skills through listening to the music, watching TV and movies, having contact with native speakers but reading into a second language involves more than listening and speaking abilities because reading is used for academic and professional purposes. Reading in a foreign language involve readers into a different culture and offers them a new experience and new conversational situations which help them in language learning and improving the four language skills reading, speaking, listening and writing. The improvement of reading skills will facilitate the development of all other abilities.

This resource brings together information about policy, second language acquisition theory and research, methods and materials for teaching adult English language learners, program design, and cross-cultural issues that effect learning in adult ESL classrooms. It also discusses the context within which adult ESOL instructors work and in which adult ESOL programs function. The framework for this discussion of context draws from the developing framework of standards for teachers of adult learners under consideration by TESOL (Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages, Inc.). This book is designed for faculty and students in adult education graduate programs and other TESOL preparation programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels that target adult learners. Other audiences are adult ESL program directors and policy makers as well as educators working in elementary and high school, many of whom are connected to populations of adult learners through the parents of the children they serve.
