Recommended free Elementary and Pre-Int business self-study materials

This is a list of the best A1 and A2 level materials I could find online. I made this for my students to use while they were waiting for their one-to-one tutorials, to discuss afterwards, and hopefully to use to improve on their weak points before the next tutorial. Hopefully of use to others too, and if you can add your own recommendations in comments below that would really help.

Note that for most of these you need to register and/ or pay to use all the resources. However, they all have enough free stuff to worth trying and to be able to work out if it’s worth carrying on with them or not.
