All-in-One

Each PDF follows the same systematic order used throughout Totally Literate, guiding students through the full structure of English—its endings, roots, families, and derivatives. These materials give beginners and foreign speakers countless hours of practice in pronunciation and decoding while building vocabulary. They are designed primarily for teacher‑aided sessions on desktops; on smartphones the PDFs are inaudible, making them suitable for home tutoring. For safety, only parents, teachers, and mature students should open the unabridged dictionaries, since those links open directly to the Web.

To download any PDF, click the Download button, and it will open automatically on your computer.
