That's what happens if you don't practice, Espe!
W e l c o m e
Welcome to this page of English-related links and things. As an EFL teacher I am often asked about resources to help with people's English studies outside the classroom.
Often I find myself sending links to internet websites like the BBC's excellent Learning English site, or to GuardianUnlimited (my online paper of choice), to Sky News Video or even just to Wikipedia.
The net also offers a plethora of other sites focusing on the more complex areas of the language like phrasal verbs, false friends and so on. As internet can be constantly updated (on a virtually daily basis, unlike most dictionaries) new vocabulary and cultural trends in the English-speaking world can also be more readily assimilated online.
Turn your speakers on and even pronunciation can be found in cyberspace. Or you can listen to the BBC World Service... or any of the BBC radio stations.
- As I am based in Madrid, sometimes students are curious to discover how British or American correspondents see Spain and Spanish current affairs, and often report facts more impartially than the local media.
- I try and update the links column weekly if I find any new and potentially "useful" sites!
- Also, these pages will save me sending out long links by email!
Enjoy it!
