The Open Bible Stories are an excellent resource to learn English with. Text, audio and video are a good combination of resources for learning a language. With the audio you can hear how to pronounce it correctly. Try repeating the story out loud several times after each story. Repeat the story until you pronounce it correctly. Use the audios and videos with the text before you.. The text for all of the stories with pictures are provided on a free pdf download above. If there are any new words in the text that you do not know, look them up in a dictionary. Write down the new word to review it.   Tell these stories to someone else that knows English and have them correct your mistakes. Use the new words you have learned in a conversation with someone. It is usually the words that you use that you retain in your memory.
