The Best Search Engines For ESL/EFL Learners by Larry Ferlazzo, AltSearchEngines (Nov14)
I'm not sure these are necessarily the best engines for people who are new to English, but they are all interesting.
Have a mix of search engines designed for students:
+ Study Search in Australia created from Google Custom Search
+ Boolify - work with images to create boolean queries.
Some form of visualization of search results"
+ Eyeplorer - graphical knowledge engine.
+ Carrot - thematic categories
+ Quinitura
+ Viewzi - select different views
+ Middlespot - many thumbnails and ways to adjust display.
And one that expedites viewing results
+ Melzoo - preview page in side panel. Very fast.
