To be honest, this game does not depend on the level of the students :) It is more important to be observant and to be able to see what you look at. It asks to find words from letter-mixture. My sister and I tried this game and it was a real fun :D! Try that and if you can find all the words.

This is more like flashcards, but it is also directed with audio. It teaches the numbers. While counting the pictures (animals0 the name of the animal is given, and the sound it makes is heard. I think it is appropriate for kids (beginners).

Text Terminator destroys texts, you have to reconstruct them. You'll see the text dotted, click on the first dot to listen to the text and then type the words to reconstruct it. Good activity for listening skill. I found this very useful to practice listening and develop vocabulary. I tried this with a friend of mine (Upper in level). He said that he liked the practice very much and at times challenging. I believe that this is more appropriate for upper/advanced students.

Using this site, you can Improve your students compositions dramatically, teaching them how to plan their ideas first. This programme will help them create and print a map with the ideas they need. I tried this with a couple of my private students who are studying for iBT TOFEL examination.

Alice is a bot (robot) with A.I. (artificial intelligence). You can chat with her, and she'll speak back to you. She never gets bored or tired of talking with you. She can answer math questions, tell you where most countries are and what their capitals are,and she even knows a few pretty funny jokes. She at times makes mistakes, but overall performs very well. She can understand you a lot better if you type carefully. Your students can chat with Alice to practice English, but they have to try to type and spell carefully. They need to take their time, and think about good grammar, good vocabulary and making good sentences. They can use their conversation as a practice time to apply what they have learned in English. You can chat with Alice anytime. The first 2500 exchanges each month have more animation and even have speech. I tried chating with her for half an hour and I should confess that I fell in love with her! She can nicely initiate discussions or answer your questions. A great tool to both practice language and also learn new things from her.

I tried this video back in NY while teaching to ESL adult students. They were intermediate students, though with good english knowledge. I was supposed to teach idioms and this video helped me to first remove myself from being the center of attention and second to help students learn the idioms more easily, as the visualizations readily stick in their mind. The students very much liked the video and its humor refreshed the class atmosphere. However, I suggest to include some post-task exercises both written and spoken to reinforce them. There are other categories such as eye idioms as well which can be used to teach idioms in a fun way.
