Welcome to ESOL
Materials Ireland

A site where ESOL tutors can access resources and download for classroom use. These resources aim to be engaging and accessible to the ESOL learner, within an Irish context.

Get Started

ESOL Materials Ireland provides free ESOL resources for classroom use. These materials have been designed to be accessible and engaging for the ESOL learner. ESOL learners often possess varying language and literacy skills.

These resources aim to encourage participation within the classroom setting and cater for all types of learners and a diverse range of levels. We recognize the importance of learner-centered resources, and ESOL Materials Ireland strives to put the learners needs first, with the concept of inclusivity at the core of their design.

We maintain that ESOL resources should aim to be meaningful to the learner and assist in facilitating and supporting their learning journey. Language and literacy are one of the key pillars of integration, and in providing free resources for ESOL tutors, our hope is that we can contribute to a positive and participatory pathway of integration.
