Collection of YouTube video stories for young learners online

READING Matters, a  distributor and supplier of educational books and resources in South Africa, has added a collection of YouTube video stories for young learners on their website.

Established in 1997, Reading Matters has worked tirelessly at promoting language and literacy in South Africa alongside READ Educational Trust, a non-profit literacy organisation.

The website is filled with educational resources for parents, learners and educators alike, and the YouTube video stories, https://readingmatters.co.za/read-story-time/, featured on the website are an excellent tool for learners and teachers.

All the stories are proudly South African, and exude the colour and uniqueness entwined through the society. Feedback received has been very positive, and parents and educators are encouraged to send the story links to children and students.
