I am teaching Reading Comprehension at a college where the level of ESL students varies from beginner to advanced.
I need to find a large set (preferably 100s) of Reading Comprehension passages and accompanying questions and exercises to draw on. It can either be a good series of books or an online database. I will pay for these materials as required.
Can you please recommend a comprehensive resource for Reading Comprehension materials.

Admittedly, I would like to draw on past standardized tests (TOEFL etc.) as resources, but these materials are proprietary and cannot be reproduced on in-class exams.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,
Why don't you try this. The level is a little hard. Well, it actually starts from Easy and goes onto Hard, even Harder.

Its actually for GRE aspirants. But it will be useful :)

Hope it helps!

Try these. I believe most of them are American English.

*Just a student.
For reading/listening activities, my teacher gave us texts extracted from Read and Understand by Betty kirkpatrick & Rebecca Mock
