So, here are the top rated apps to me: GOOGLE DOCS AND GOOGLE SHEETS They allows you to track any changes made to the document in real time, leave notes, corrections, use the built-in chat. An ideal tool for group work on text and error correction. A great feature of Google Docs for teachers is the ability to track the changes made to the document by each of the participants using the Revision History function.

GOOGLE SITES projects have a platform for comments and statistics services, which means that each student will receive feedback from the teacher and classmates.

Improve your language skills using online services and multimedia soft

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 Auralog's Tell Me More programm In my opinion this service is kind of outdated and there is a narrow variety of audiobooks and films. http://literacynet.org/learningresources There is not enough of the given information. http://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/esl/index.html Here you can read theory, but can not practice.
