I tried it with an ESL Learner. Then when I asked his opinion on it he said that he did it with a great pleasure and it helped him to learn the target vocabulary in a very effective way.

This game is designed for low intermediate EFL learners. The game is very interesting one, becuase the player is motivated to guess the hidden animal until it appears in full picture (there are three choices for each hidden animal and when the player chooses one of them, the computer either makes green or red line in the word and also pronounces that word). So, this game can also help learners gain right pronunciation skills. I used this game with my neighbour (11-year-old boy) and he was interested in guessing the pictures and tried to pronounce the word after the computer prounced them. I would suggest ESL teachers to use it because it enhanced my neighbour's vocabulary and improves his pronunciation. skills.

This is a duel game that practices adjectives and their opposites. Besides, it is a lot of fun as the player fights with the computer while trying to find the correct answer.

This game is helpful for teaching synonyms to kids. I tried the medium mode of this game with my neighbor and he liked it. He learned many new words from this game. Alternatively, it allows to see how the given words are pronounced and spelled. There is a worksheet which can be printed out to use in case there are no computers connected to the internnet at your disposal.

This quiz is good for testing how correctly students can use prepositions in sentences. It can be printed out and used even if the classroom has no computers connected to the internet. I tried it with my friend and I can say that it served good as a testing activity.

This game may be used in elementary-intermediate levels. It gives the definition of the object and one should find and click on the object. I tried that with one of my pre-intermediate students, she liked it, but the only thing she suggested is that it should also have the names of the objects written. So, perhaps you could make flashcards from this game and make some additions to it.

Engaging for elementary level learners: matching games on different topics like clothes, family members, animals, kitchen items, body parts, etc. Again, I piloted the actiivty with my neighbour Hayk who is 9 years old. what the kid liked more was the fact he should grasp th epcture uqickly and ut it under the right word. Then he failed becaus eof influency with working with the computer, however we did it for some days and he practiced and improved hand movement. Time limit factor was also motivating since he was trying hard to win the game.

This is a very good game for ESL begginers to practice their knowledge. This game also allows them to make direct connections between the names of fruits and numbers. I tried it with 8 students from my EEC Prep2 course and it worked very good. At first they /ss/ failed to win the fruitmaster /computer/ but after playing two or more times, they were able to win. Through this game, Ss uncounciously learn the names of fruits!!!! I would advise everybody to pilot this game with beginner students.
