Graded readers are books, stories, and articles written specifically for language learners. They are carefully crafted to match a learner's level of proficiency, with vocabulary, grammar, and sentence structures tailored to their abilities. This approach enables readers to build confidence and fluency in reading, comprehension, and overall communication.
