Who am I?

My name is Karen and I write all the books.

Nice to meet you!

About me:

  • I was born and brought up in England.
  • I have a Master's degree in Linguistics.
  • I have a teaching diploma and many years' teaching experience in the UK and abroad.
  • I've written lots of books for learners of English.
  • I speak Hungarian, French and Spanish so I understand what it's like to learn a foreign language!

What is Read Stories - Learn English?

My books are graded readers. They are adapted for learners of English.

I take exciting stories in English and:

  • make them shorter
  • make the vocabulary easier
  • make the grammar easier.
This helps learners of English - like YOU - read the stories more easily!

All my books have:

  • a list of important characters
  • definitions of difficult words.
AND on this website, you will find (for all my books):

  • vocabulary exercises
  • comprehension exercises
  • notes on British culture.
