Content-based English: Academic English series
The Content-based English series focuses on content so students can gain knowledge while practicing English. There are three series: Around the World, Global Issues, and Academic English.
“John Spiri’s content-based series are extremely inspiring for teachers as well as students and they are easy to use! But most importantly they touch the heart of humanity with critical thinking and guide us toward more awareness and action for a better world. This is value-added English teaching. When I grow up (again) I want to be like John Spiri.”
Tim Murphey, professor, writer, humanitarian.


The academic series provides students a brief introduction to university subjects and topics typically found at a university. The topical readings and dictation activities inspire students to love learning. Students learn English while focusing on fascinating facts about academic subjects.
