The first thing is to remember they are adults and treat them accordingly. Adults in general are active learners, want relevancy to their own experience, and want to learn problem solving strategies (reading and writing).
Assessment is critical.
Why do you want to learn how to read and write?
I want to read the bus signs; read the food packages in the store; fill out simple forms without asking for help.
I want to get my GED some day.
I want to read my child's flyers from school?
I want to pass my written driver's exam.
These goals determine the learning materials to begin with: newspaper ads, magazine ads, food packages, bus schedules, notices from school, drivers guide. Many will be surprised they already have an extensive vocabulary of Product Logo they see all the time. In short they already know how to decode symbols (read). What a confidence builder. Their limitation is the range of symbols (words) in their vocabulary.
EDIT 2016.07.16: An overlooked strategy, I passively used that had my daughter reading by 2 1/2 years is turning on the close caption thereby making the connection between speech and the printed word. I watched many child development programs while on bedrest during my pregnancy and learned the tip from those shows. I understand there has been a number of research studies demonstrating nonnative English speakers learn English from watching close-captioned TV.
From these sight words, together the teacher and learner both can create a vocabulary list using pictures on index cards. McDonalds is a good logo to start writing because it has the most common vowel and a lower and uppercase of the same letter, d, and there are several logo variations.
