How ESL Fast Is Organized for Beginners and Intermediate Learners
Updated
ESL Fast splits its free material into two main tracks — For Beginners and For Intermediate Learners — with grammar and writing resources listed under each. If you already know your rough level, you can jump straight to the matching section on the homepage; if you are unsure, start with the beginner conversation and reading sets and move up when they feel easy. The site also offers a search box (covering rong-chang.com and eslfast.com) and a Site Map for locating a specific course.
For Beginners
The beginner track is built around very short speaking, conversation, and graded reading material, plus basic grammar drills.
Speaking and conversation
- Speak Kindergarten English
- Speaking Is Easy
- Easy Conversations
Reading (roughly in order of difficulty)
- Start Reading for Children (I), (II), (III)
- Super Easy Reading
- Easy Reading
- English Level 1 through English Level 6
- New Graded Reading 1, 2, 3
Grammar and writing
- Grammar Notes
- Easy Grammar Exercises
- Scrambled-Sentence Exercises (I) and (II)
A practical way to use this section: pick one conversation set and one reading set at the same time, and use the grammar exercises as a supplement rather than the main activity. The numbered reading series (English Level 1–6) gives you a built-in difficulty ladder, so you can move to the next level when the current one stops requiring effort.
For Intermediate Learners
The intermediate track shifts toward faster speech, longer texts, and culture- and essay-based reading.
Speaking and conversation
- Speak English Fast
- English Conversations
Reading
- New Graded Reading 4
- New Graded Reading 5 (New Sciences)
- 365 Essays for English Learners
- 100 American People
- 100 Essays: America Is Great!
- American Culture and Customs
- English for New USA Immigrants
- ESL Mini-Novels
- A Young Couple's Life in America
Grammar and writing
- Sentence Structure Writing Practice
- Advanced Grammar Exercises
- Vocabulary Lists
The essay and culture collections (365 Essays, 100 American People, American Culture and Customs) work well if you want reading material with context rather than isolated sentences. ESL Mini-Novels and A Young Couple's Life in America suit learners who want continuous narrative instead of one-off passages.
Grammar and Writing Across Both Levels
Grammar and writing appear in both tracks rather than as a separate top-level section:
| Level | Grammar / Writing items |
|---|---|
| Beginner | Grammar Notes, Easy Grammar Exercises, Scrambled-Sentence Exercises (I) & (II) |
| Intermediate | Sentence Structure Writing Practice, Advanced Grammar Exercises, Vocabulary Lists |
If you only want grammar, start with Grammar Notes and Easy Grammar Exercises, then move to Advanced Grammar Exercises and Sentence Structure Writing Practice.
Finding a Specific Lesson
Two tools help when you already know what you want:
- Search box — labeled as searching rong-chang.com & eslfast.com, so it covers both sites.
- Site Map — a full index linked from the footer, useful for browsing everything at once.
The site also lists an ESL Robot 5.0 AI tutor and a Points-Based Reward System, and shows Login / Register / Membership / Dashboard options, which indicates some features are tied to an account. The available page information does not state prices or what an account unlocks, so check the site directly if account-based features matter to you.
