Rosetta Stone
 

English as an Additional Language

Rosetta Stone® is a fast and easy way for you to get your EAL pupils speaking, reading, writing and comprehending English. Because Rosetta Stone is immersion-based, it can be integrated into bilingual, dual immersion, or limited English proficiency programs.

Accelerate the Progress of EAL Pupils

Rosetta Stone stands apart because it focuses on the EAL learners’ innate strengths, rather than their deficiencies. We all rely on our visual sense to understand the world, and that’s precisely where Rosetta Stone starts. It moves pupils through a carefully structured sequence of pictures, encouraging them to associate images they understand with words that they don’t. It works because that’s exactly the way we learned our first language.

It’s Immersive

Rosetta Stone gives pupils learning English the advantage of being immersed in English from the moment they start using the program. There’s no translation or memorisation. As a result, their success doesn’t depend on their literacy in their first language.

Customer Comments

"As a couple we tend to travel a fair amount and we enjoy the flexibility that Rosetta Stone provides. We can dip into it at our leisure and not be restrained by class timetables or the cost of a tutor."
- Elisabeth Raymond

"I have been using Rosetta Stone for over six months now, and I am finding it very effective. I like the fact that I can work at my own pace and in my own time, for example, completing a quick ten-minute lesson at my desk during my lunch break."
- Justin Tonkin
