Need some Help in Your Education Right NOW?

Hello, my groupmates. I'd like to help you with understanding our new subject - Practise of Speaking Foreign Language. The subject is held by Valentina Zavackaya and Ekaterina Anatol'evna. There we have a theme called Politics. Forms of government. Pretty tough, right? I can help you become the best student in your group!
I'd like to introduce you The Learning Resources .



 It offers web-delivered instruction using current and past CNN San Francisco bureau and CBS 5 - KPIX (CBS Broadcasting) news stories. The learner can choose to read the text, listen to the text, and view a short video clip of the story.
See this great variety of stories to read and analyze? You can choose from categories.

As I mentioned earlier one of our topics is Politics. Forms of government. Let's use this resource to help to get through some topics. 

Let's take for example History Repeats? 1916 Election Parallel Abridged Story. From a news story by
CNN San Francisco Reporter Don Knapp .November 11, 2000

You see that you can read the story, listen to it and even watch a video! 
After the reading you can check some additional notes and relates sites. It'll be very youseful to check vocabulary and to do some tests on the content of the article

ESL Resource Center is GREAT for  reading!!! After you read, it offers you a short test. So, it's a good feedback and a wonderful way to improve your language skills.

SEMINAR 2. CALL & Language Skills

Remember CALL? Let's talk about it. My task is to look through some educational services and share my opinion on them. Let's go! I've tried multi-skill collections by the Kelly brothers . As said in the domain, the site has many things. And I can say that the service is great! This web site is for people studying English as a Second Language (ESL) or English as a Foreign Language (EFL). There are quizzes, word games, word puzzles, proverbs, slang expressions, anagrams, a random-sentence generator and other computer assisted language learning activities! It even has an iPad version, so that's convenient. As for the   Listening, Speaking and Pronunciation , I would like to tell you about  Professor Higgins multimedia software.
