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.

The game is designed in a way that high intermediate EFL students can add in it whatever it requires to complete. Through this game, EFL learners become inspired and excited. At the end of the story the reader can write his/her own analogue and change the story. Accordingly, it will also promote creativity and learners writing skill. I tried it out with my student and I got a great result.

Comparing animals - Students practice comparatives & Superlatives using this fantastic crossword puzzle with animals words. The grammar focus in my EEC class was comparatives & superlatives and I tried this activity with my EEC students (low intermediate level) and it was interesting for them. It actually helped them think critically. i suggest you do this activity as an individual task, it will help you understand how well the students internalized the comparative and superlative forms of adjectives.

This is a game that may be appropriate for all levels starting from low-intermediate. This game suggests some letters and the player should make as many words with these letters as possible. There is a time limit, and the words that are not correctly spelled are not recognized. At the end all the possible words are suggested. I tried that myself and it was a real fun, the best thing for this game is to think FAST!

Here is a good online writing site. I think it si for high beginner or low intermediate level. It gives opportunities for choosing the title, the format (letter, news paper article, etc), and panting wich you will draw.

This is an interactive game practicing grammar (active vs. passive voice). It's for intermediate level of students. I think the learners will be interested in as each correct answer in the gap filling exercise will give them an opportunity to play basetball.
