What is Across Cultures?
Across Cultures is a platform that offers English as an Additional Language (EAL) blended learning resources for learners in schools. They provide a mix of independent and taught English language lessons across the curriculum, along with training and resources for developing a whole school framework for supporting EAL development. Their books, guidance, and programmes of learning support small group EAL teaching, making it a comprehensive resource for educators.
With a focus on supporting EAL learners, Across Cultures offers a range of resources, guidance, and free downloads for teachers. They also provide a newsletter with articles on EAL teaching strategies and best practices. The platform aims to enhance the learning experience for new-to-English students by offering engaging and effective tools that cater to different levels of language proficiency.
Through the Learning Village, Across Cultures has created an interactive and adaptable resource that benefits both students and teachers. The platform has received positive feedback from educators who have seen improvements in students' confidence, language skills, and overall learning progress. By offering a variety of activities, resources, and support, Across Cultures aims to make EAL teaching more effective and enjoyable for both educators and learners.
