Website Review: Learn English—British Council
http://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/
In Short: The best site on the internet for learning English. It’s multilevel. It’s really big. It’s really helpful.
First: Low-level, intermediate-level, and high-level students will all find great stuff.
Second: The site is really big. You can watch and listen. You can read and write. You can practice grammar. You can play games. You can make friends.
Third: The activities are helpful, interesting, and modern. The site is easy to use and looks great.
For Students: Here are three things you might really like on the site. For listening, Big City, Small World is great. Studying for the IELTS? Check out this section. Or, you might join the virtual community Second Life so you can speak and listen to real people in English all the time.
For Teachers: Send your students to the site and have them write their own reviews. Ask them to answer three questions: (1) What can you listen to on this site? Describe it. (2) Is this a good site? Why/Why not? (3) Would you recommend it to a friend? Why/Why not?
