Language Growth for Every Student
Read, speak, and learn language online with the help of AI
Free language learning forever. No credit card.
Personalized Reading
The EL class is the most diverse in the school, and giving every student reading materials that appropriately challenge them allows teachers to automatically accommodate for different abilities in the same classroom.
​
Students decide which of our 250+ books, systematically arranged into four levels and 23+ topics.
Here is how to get started...
01
Register students and send placement tests
Add your students to AIR Language with names & emails or via popular SSO platforms like Classlink, Clever, etc. Then push out the placement test. This will insert them into levels with content that is "just beyond" their current levels.
02
Students read
Students have access to 250+ books systematically arranged into four levels and 23+ topics. We suggest students read books and take quizzes for 15 to 25 minutes per day.
When students don't understand a word or phrase, they click on it and it appears in picture form.
03
Teachers meet with students 1:1 for regular reading conferences
During reading time, teachers pull students to their desk, one by one, and talk with them about what they have been reading. Techers and students utilize our student analytics, goal setting, and gamification features to make reading conferences effective and engaging. Get deep insights into every students' progress towards English language proficiency.
AIR Works for Every Learner
At AIR Language, we know EL teachers want every student to learn. For that to happen, a teacher needs to adjust for varying levels of language and knowledge within the same classroom. The problem is, there aren’t many curricula that individualize, which makes teachers feel overwhelmed and insufficient.
AIR Enriches Classrooms
ESL Teachers experience a plethora of benefits
Plan Less
Give students 15-20 minutes of reading time every day. Using AIR in the classroom means less planning for class time. Somewhere between collaborating with teachers, talking with parents, doing compliance, putting on events, and helping students, teachers are expected to plan effective lessons that accommodate for EL classes, the most diverse in school.
Set Individual Reading Goals
Focus students by setting reading goals with them. An important aspect of our reading conferences is Goal Setting. During this step, teachers collaborate with students to develop reading goals, which should be designed to develop the reading skills students need to progress as their language develops.
Demonstrate Student Growth
Show that your students are learning through our Student Analytics. One way to track student progress is with progress checks and reading conferences. One benefit of reading conferences and an emphasis on individual reading, is that students' progress at varying rates. Teachers can push progress checks out to the entire class, or to individuals as they see fit. This way no student is left behind or held back.
Give Students Choice
Choose from 250+ books systematically arranged into 4 levels. With AIR Language, students always have a choice about what to read. With a library of books, written and organized by topic and language level, students decide the books that pertain to the experiences they would like to engage in. This makes reading inherently more important for each student.
Meet With Students More
Guide students in 1:1 reading conferences that meet state or organization standards. Meeting with English learners to talk about what they are learning and how they can improve is crucial to a continual language learning experience. Reading conferences give teachers the time and space to encourage and guide students as they grow.
Help All Students Learn English
Teachers that use AIR Language see students reading an average of 41 books per week and participate more in class. They also self-report greater growth and more satisfaction than classes they've previously taken. Classes that use AIR Language on a regular basis demonstrate growth for every single student over a two-month period.

How did you write the curriculum? Do you have book samples?We started to write the curriculum for AIR in November 2021. We allowed students to use it in the classroom, collected feedback, and slowly enhanced our digital versions up to what you see today. Today and going forward we write and organize our books using three key metrics: Sentence Complexity​​: Level 1 begins with simple sentences, and by the time students arrive at level 4​​ they will have seen simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences. ​​​​Grammatical Sequence: Arranged according to Stephen Krashen's work on sequencing in acquisition, books progress​gradually introduce the grammatical schema students are ready to acquire. Functionality of Vocabulary​​​: Books are written with vocabulary that is useful for varying stages of language development and interaction with English speakers; lower levels of books contain more concrete, everyday language, useful at school with friends, and new meetings, while the vocabulary used in upper levels is more abstract and tends toward the more conceptual. For more information on our curriculum and how to use the CELL reading conference protocol, request our teacher eBook. To view our book samples, go here.
