Hey dearests...

A funny way to learn pronunciation and new vocabulary is through singing, that is why I am posting here a website which shows lots of songs you can sing with a kareoke programme. Click on HERE and enjoy this experience.

Listening and Reading

Hi dear students,

Here I show you a captioned video so you can listen and read the information spoken. This is a good way to get used to the English accent and if you like to learn always, you can look for the meaning of words you don't know and widen your vocabulary.

Once you watch the video, answer the following questions. Remember to leave your answers as comments:

1. Did Mr. Stevens like Ross to be his daughter's boyfriend? Why?
2. What did Rachel like about Mr. Stevens?
3. What happened to Mrs. Stevens?
4. What did Ross do when he saw Rachel and Mr. Stevens kissing?
5. What does "talk you up" mean?

Listening Comprehension

Hello dear students,
Let's start practicing our English Language Skills, beginning with a listening practice. In this case the activity is very simple, you just have to listen to a Taylor Swift's song at the same time you read the lyrics. Once you do that, post a comment listing the words you do not know and later make another comment in which you say the meaning of such words.

Voice Generator

Here you have two different tools that can help you with the pronunciation of some words. Remember that I am here to facilitate some tools and activities, not to teach you about computer science. However, I strongly recommend that you calm down when using the computer, READ everything and then use the tools. I bet that if you READ you will become experts ;)

Ok, the first tool you have is a site in which you can register. Once you do that, you can type the words or phrases to know their pronunciation and after that, if you want, you can download the reading. If you decide to visit the site, there you have the URL: http://readthewords.com/Default.aspx

The second tool I was talking about is a voice generator software, you can dowload from the following link and then install it on your pc... It is easy to use ;) http://www.box.net/shared/uo8nhrfxjb

Just in case you don want to use the previous link you can download the software from here and then install it

Welcome!
