Study examples you have already read
Review a grammar focus using examples connected to the story instead of unrelated sample sentences.
How SmartReader works
Read first, then use familiar characters, events, vocabulary and grammar for listening, pronunciation, speaking and practice.
Follow one English story from reading and listening to speaking, grammar, vocabulary and quizzes.


Start with the story
The first steps help you understand the text, vocabulary and audio before you begin speaking.
Select a story for level A1, A2, B1 or B2, or choose a topic and style for a personal story.
Check a sentence translation, open contextual word cards and save useful vocabulary.
Listen to prepared audio while working with the same story sentence by sentence.
04 · Shadowing
Listen to the prepared sentence, record your own reading and compare your words with the text. SmartReader shows word-level colour feedback and a text match percentage.

05 · Speaking
After reading, answer five voice questions about the same events and characters. Your story becomes preparation for a focused speaking conversation.

06 · Grammar and quizzes
Return to examples from the story, review its grammar focus and check your understanding with short activities.
