Improve your language skills using online services and multimedia soft

 Today i'd like to share my opinion about some online services and multimedia soft connecting with language learning.

  • Rosetta Stone

The subscription is not free, so I didn’t really get the chance to try it.

  • Auralog's Tell Me More programm

In my opinion this service is kind of outdated and there is a narrow variety of audiobooks and films.
There is not enough of the given information.
Here you can read theory, but can not practice. I would at least add small tests.


So, here are TOP 3 services i like the most:
  • Free English pronunciation Course program
I think this source is really useful, because it’s important to improve your pronunciation by watching videos made by native speakers. And also I’m familiar with Heather Hansen, the tutor, because on our 1st year in university we used to watch her video “Chaos”. And since then I’ve watched a couple of her videos.
It’s a really useful service for teachers to teach kids, because there are a lot of animated lessons and a plenty of worksheets.
Here a theory is expressed very interesting.

That's it. I hope you'll find something interesting for you!

My WIKI experience

So, I’ve studied TEFLPedia and here is my review on it. Teflpedia is a wiki covering everything associated with teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL). It currently has 189 sets of conversation questions for use in your EFL classroom and 5,792 entries in its TEFL Glossary. This aims to summarise everything teachers need to know about TEFL, with a major focus on the linguistics of English and the pedagogy of foreign language teaching. Teflpedia is generally closer to a glossary (which tends to have short articles) than an encyclopedia (which tends to have longer entries). That is, it gives definitions of TEFL-relevant terminology, with examples of that terminology. More encyclopedia-like content may be developed in the future. Relevant fields covered include (deep breath) English linguistics, including usage, grammar and discourse, language acquisition, education theory and educational psychology including language learning and teaching pedagogy, language testing (includi...
