Helping Language Learners Succeed Since 2023

Read Grade was founded in 2023 by an experienced language educator with a passion for helping students reach their full potential. With a Master’s degree in TESOL from Columbia University’s prestigious Teachers College and years of teaching experience in the US, Japan, and South Korea, our founder saw a need for high-quality, engaging reading materials to help learners of all ages and abilities improve their standardized test scores and overall language skills.

That’s why we created Read Grade – to give students the ability to read compelling, real-world content at just the right level to help them continue growing their vocabulary and reading comprehension skills. We adapt reading materials spanning a range of genres and topics, carefully controlling vocabulary and grammar to match the major language proficiency benchmarks. This allows learners to experience the joy of reading while expanding their abilities in an incremental yet rewarding way.

Our readers are designed to work for the specific needs of various standardized tests, including JLPT, TOEFL, IELTS, and more. The vocabulary and sentence structures align closely with what students can expect to see on these high-stakes exams. Practice makes perfect, and our readers provide that in spades!

In today’s fast-paced world, we believe language learning should fit into your lifestyle seamlessly. That’s why we offer our materials on the web, so they can be accessed across all major platforms and devices. Wherever you are, your next engaging, informative graded reader is just a click away.

As language learners ourselves, we know how challenging yet fulfilling the journey can be. We’re here to make achieving proficiency as enjoyable and effective as possible. With the right materials and a passion for self-improvement, success is within your reach. Start reading with us today!
