The ESOL Entry 3: Reading and Writing for Daily Life course offers learners the opportunity to improve their ability to understand written English and express themselves effectively in writing. Whether you are reading a bus timetable, filling out an online form, or composing a formal email, this course equips you with the skills and confidence needed to navigate common tasks in English-speaking environments.

In the reading modules, students will learn how to identify the purpose and audience of various text types, including advertisements, appointment letters, school notes, and public notices. Strategies such as skimming, scanning, and interpreting real-world documents will help learners locate key information quickly and accurately.

The writing modules focus on building clear sentence structures, using appropriate punctuation, and adapting tone for different contexts. Learners will practise writing short messages, formal emails, CVs, and cover letters, along with completing online and paper-based forms commonly used in employment, education, and daily life. Emphasis is placed on clarity, organisation, and editing written work with confidence.

By integrating reading and writing tasks into realistic scenarios, the course ensures that learners gain transferable skills they can apply at work, in community settings, and during further education. The course ends with a practical review project that brings together all key skills in preparation for progression to higher-level ESOL or vocational study.
