Do you enjoy listening to audiobooks? To browse our collection of audiobooks and ebooks go to https://soraapp.com/home. Students can sign in with their GAC username (the part of your student email before the @) and your GAC login. From there you can browse available books. The free app for your smart phone is called SORA by Overdrive. To accelerate reading comprehension, use the audio and the print together. With all types of reading, check to make sure you are understanding and re-read when you lose concentration.
