Technology & ESOL

After fire was found, our world started to change. People started to think and invent.
Nowadays we have more technological products than ever before and our everyday life has become mostly dependent on the technologies and it has become more and more beautiful as a result. As an English learner, we can also use the technology to help us with our learning.
Computers and Internet are many learner's favourite tools. Once you have a computer and connect it with the Internet, you can do many things. You can talk with others who are learning English as well as your teachers, your classmates and some fluent speakers. Joining a forum is a very good practice for your writing and thinking. Creating your own blog just like what we are doing now, is an excellent way to exchange your ideas.

There are many websites for learning English, they have many online activities and exercises. reading, writing, listening and speaking, they have everything. "Time4English" is a free English learning website, "voicethread" is a very good website to practise your speaking. See what we did, fantastic, isn't it?

Learning all day is a bit boring. Find some games, learning while playing. If you like music more than games, you also can find some English songs, don't forget to get the lyrics. On "yappr" you can get all the subtitles of their videos, but I'm afraid you have to pay now.

You can learn even with your mobile phone or ipod, your can listen to the radio while you are walking or on a train. Put a dictionary in your phone, your can check some new words which you can find in the street.
