Abridge Academy:
The #1 interactive online ESL curriculum

Very professional As a brick and mortar teacher (27 yrs), I am so impressed with the Abridge curriculum. I came across the charts that show how AA compares to the online companies and the background for developing the curriculum (CEFR, Cambridge, etc). It’s this kind of development that gives the curriculum so much credibility. When I decided to teach online a couple of years ago, one of my concerns was whether I’d be able to find a curriculum which had educational integrity. Abridge Academy certainly does. Thank you for all of your hard work.

Must-have for online teachers I absolutely love these lessons. I tried the Chinese New Year lesson with one of my students and he loved it! The crossword, games, acting and gifs of the animals were so cool. I love your work Katie and thank you for always being such a great example of how we should create and engage. If you haven't tried the lessons then you absolutely must!

Everything you need for teaching young learners I'm really happy I stumbled upon the Abridge Academy curriculum - finally a CEFR curriculum suitable for (very) young learners + phonics + online + British English + affordable!

Even better than VIPKID I’ve been using Abridge Academy resources with some of my kids who transferred over from VIPKID and have loved it. Thank you so much!

Phenomenal lessons! These are absolutely phenomenal lessons. My students love them and they learn a lot. Parents love them too! I LOVE this entire curriculum – I teach kids from 2 to 18 with Abridge Academy. THANK YOU!

Well researched advanced courses I have a 12 yo student and I have been using the lower intermediate curriculum with him the last few months. I have used both Space Explorers and English News with this student and he really enjoyed all of the material! They’re well researched - great for conversations 🙂

Awesome trial classes I have aced a trial class today using your Abridge Academy lesson on magic E. Thank you for the slides!

I LOVE Abridge! I really can't get over this curriculum. I've used a lot of different books and ready-set-go curriculums but this steals the show. Videos are set into the pages and some how it works right with the students. Gets them learning and expressing the language at the right pace. Thank you!

BRILLIANT I only recently realized how much great stuff you've added such as videos, homework and workbooks! BRILLIANT. I think you've done an amazing job with the whole thing. Thank you!

Interactive lesson previews These interactive resources have been received so well by my online learners the past four months. I have found the lesson preview links really useful as pre-class preparation. They provide a really great way for learners to gain some further confidence before class, because of encouraged pre-class practice.

Wish I'd known about Abridge Academy long ago! Awonderful website and curriculum. Very useful! My students really enjoy these lessons. I have a 3 year old in Qatar and I do some of the slides and songs with him. It’s good for vocabulary building. Thank you for the great curriculum and material.

The BEST! I really like Abridge Academy - I have tested other curriculums and Abridge is the best. Abridge is much more organized and has more options 🙂

Well structured, interactive and fun I highly recommend the Abridge Academy curriculum to all Independent Teachers! My students are really enjoying it. It is well structured, interactive, interesting and a pleasure to teach! The additional support is fantastic too (flashcards, homework, activity sheets). I have explored a range of pre-made curriculum options and Abridge Academy is my favourite!

The best curriculum I have ever used!! Abridge Academy curriculum is a joy to use! My students love it and lesson prep is a breeze. I've been a private online teacher for five years. I've tried the other popular programs out there, but AA is by far the best!

AMAZING phonics and early reading lessons I can't rave about Abridge Academy enough - I've taught 4 yr olds to read with this curriculum and it's outstanding. I LOVE Abridge!

Brilliant resources I was honestly relieved to find Katie and the brilliant resources at Abridge Academy. It is now my GO TO for anything I need to help me teach! We all need the best resources to increase our income as independent teachers, whilst giving the best service to our students. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Best bang for the buck! I've tried many curriculums, and for this age [young learners], I think Abridge delivers the best bang for the buck. I had a student who could barely speak at all at the beginning of December who is now progressing very well and independently reading!

Fun for kids Children’s books and songs make the learning process enjoyable. The Abridge Academy curriculum includes stories that feature characters in different contexts, and songs with the new words to make the learning process superb. Thanks for this wonderful curriculum!

Awesome science themed lessons! My students and I love that so many topics in the English News course are science related. The discussion questions were fantastic at getting one of my shyest students to speak and elaborate on her ideas. She spoke at length about her ideas for protecting animals!

Such a timesaver! I just finished teaching a lesson, and my student and I are both very excited. Initially, she asked me if she could take a screenshot during the lesson, but I told her that I would send her the workbook after the lesson instead. I can't express how happy I am. AA is a lifesaver, and I can also do my house chores during the time I would have spent planning lessons. I don't have to plan my own lessons anymore. I am a Happy Chappie. Haha

Interactive and engaging I have been using Abridge curriculum for my youngest learners for two years. The interactivity keeps young minds engaged, and the lesson routine is predictable yet fresh with each lesson, unit, and level. Highly recommend!

Amazing debating lessons - brought in new students! My student and I recently started the debating lessons. He is 13 years old and has a high level of English. These lessons are right up his street! He has been able to form opinions and ideas while understanding and seeing a different opinion from his own! My student enjoyed the lesson so much that he requested homework and shared it with his classmate, who had just signed up for classes today. I highly recommend trying these lessons out – Thank you for all your dedication and hard work in creating these lessons Katie!

The BEST online ESL curriculum After spending years wallowing in resources and then checking out all the plug-n-play stuff around, I think that Katie has done a great job with Abridge. These are just what I need, and, importantly, the slide shows are interactive. They include introductory activities, games and revision, so I don't need to think of anything. The format looks exciting and fun. I particularly love the placement test.

Takes phonics teaching to a whole new level! I’ve recently been doing the Phonics course with my little student and her and her mother found it extremely engaging, the transformation I’ve seen from her within 2 classes has been amazing! Abridge is just taking teaching and learning online to a whole new level for me and my students!

Amazing placement test Used the placement test, it worked really well and made testing my student into the correct level a breeze! Thank you for making this!

Member Workshops to Build Your Business Katie, thank you for the Member Workshops this summer! I learned so much and got to practice and try out idea as well as the slow process of deciding where I was going as a tutor and the steps I can take to get there. I feel these sessions, as well as all your YouTube webinars, are a huge value added to my Abridge Academy subscription. These sessions, the phonics lessons, fables / fairytales, and extra curricular lessons are all excellent. Thanks!

AMAZING and engages even reluctant students The Abridge Academy curriculum is absolutely amazing, I’ve recently started using it with several of my students and the transformation I’ve been seeing in them is just wonderful. One of my more reluctant students I didn’t have to teach - he was raring to go and sentences were being used! He flew through the level 1 lesson Fruits and even read me a short story at the end of the class!

Perfect for Outschool teachers Being able to use this curriculum to teach on Outschool, for commercial use - that is a game-changer, right there! [The resources are] so professional, and Abridge Academy really listen to teachers' feedback.

Great time-saver! I have been enjoying using Abridge this year with my students and the parents love that there is homework for the students to do. It has made life much easier!

Super interactive and lots of games Abridge Academy's teaching resources are well-rounded, fully interactive, kids-friendly, fun and engaging teaching resources, standardized to follow and facilitate my students' growth in their English skills development. They love the animations, little built-in rewards and being able to drag and drop, draw and interact with the content. Parents love having lesson previews and home practice activities, and I feel very much fulfilled when I see my student's smiles and parents' satisfaction, all thanks to Katie and her creative, high-quality work she put in developing the teaching resources.

Like VIPkid, zero prep work required I am so impressed with this company’s curriculum. My students craved the interactivity they once had with online Chinese schools like PalFish, VIPKid etc. so this company fills a much needed gap for online teachers like myself. Overall, the curriculum is well-organized, clever and fun. Most importantly, it requires very little prep-work which is a must for busy/lazy teachers like me, lol. I am particularly impressed with the expansion courses. My son, students, and their parents all loved “The School of Magic”. I’ve yet to try many of the others with students but I’ve had a chance to review them and they look great. The customer service is also outstanding. I always get a quick and helpful reply which is important to me as I’m not very tech savvy. I really appreciate all their help in figuring out how to use the various video platforms as well as all the assistance with learning how to use tools and navigate the site, etc. Anyway, 5 stars all the way, highly recommended! Thanks.

Saves a huge amount of lesson planning time Abridge Academy was recommended to me by another teacher and I began researching. I had a few questions and reached out to Katie at Abridge....she was super helpful and not at all 'pushy.' I decided to give Abridge a go and have not looked back! I love it, the kids love it, and the parents love it! It is reasonably priced and saves a huge amount of lesson planning time. The slides are interactive and fun for young learners. I am so happy that I found Abridge Academy. Thanks Katie for all your help and support.

Well-structured, engaging, and fun! The Abridge Curriculum has been life transforming in terms of teaching and organising my stress free classes with my Turkish students. It has created a structural and clear approach to gradual progression and simply and effectively set outAs an experienced ESL educator, I’ve had the opportunity to work with various curriculum over the years. Among them, this particular ESL program has consistently stood out for its clarity, cultural relevance, and engaging structure. It has proven to be exceptionally effective and well-received by my students, especially those from TurkeyThis curriculum combines a communicative approach with a solid foundation in grammar, vocabulary development, and listening/speaking practice. The materials are thoughtfully sequenced and cater to a wide range of proficiency levels, which has made it adaptable to the unique needs of my Turkish learners.This Abridge curriculum has become a cornerstone of my teaching practice. It not only supports academic progress but also creates an enjoyable and inclusive environment for Turkish students to thrive. Its popularity in my classes is a testament to its thoughtful design and educational value. I couldn't recommend it enough. Thank you Katie for your inspiration and support beyond the curriculum. You really give teachers a break down of how to go about and succeed more in the navigation of the ESL world maze

The joy on a student's face is priceless! My student absolutely blossomed when he realized his name was on the slides! He was completely engaged and loving every moment right to the end. I love your lessons and materials. Thank you so much, Katie!

FANTASTIC debating lessons My students and I absolutely LOVE the debating lessons, they are fantastic!! ❤

Great themed lessons I really like your interactive curriculum! The School of Magic lesson is so brilliant - virtually all of my students love Harry Potter and this sort of theme and this class is so fun for both student and teacher. I’m really excited to teach it to my students.
