    Do you use idioms in your speech? I don't because I'm not a native speaker of English and not so sure about the meanings of many idioms. This task may help none native learners to learn idioms and use them in proper situations.

    This is a good reading and speaking task which includes scientific issues in a simplified language. The topic is attractive for teenagers and there are enough discussion issues to use as a reading and speaking exercise in the class situation.

    This activity is useful for listening and comprehension. I asked my 10 years old learner to listen and retell whatever she understood from the whole clip.It's quite suitable for low intermediate.

    It's a matching game which provides pictures, written words and pronunciations. I tried it on beginning learners of 5 and 10 years old. They played it for several times with enthusiasm.

    This is a good source for using a simple story to motivate pre-school and first beginning students to learn English. It's easy to choose pictures and creates a story even for a 5 year old kid. My 5 years old daughter got encouraged when recognized that she made it by herself. If it's being used often children would be able to recognize words as a whole; without having the ability of reading the individual letters.

Business English - 0 views

    This site is suitable for those who are interested in teaching or learning "Business English". It provides rich vocabulary, slangs and jargons that you may face in a commercial meeting. Some do-s and don't-s of business are included here. Presentation tips and games are other attractive options. Since I spent 3 months on a useless "Business English" class in a quite well- known university in Iran I can tell that visiting this site and similar sits are much more useful.

    The readings and projects were incomprehensible for my low intermediate student. I believe students of high intermediate or advanced levels would enjoy the environment of this amazing site especially if they are teenagers. Here, scientific information and doable projects which are quite attractive for teenagers are provided in a simplified language. There is also a printable coloring part which is useful for kids of various ages.

    This is a great site for intermediate's first grades to improve their reading and in some cases listening skills didn't include the beginning level in the tags since my subject (beginning level student) had difficulties in comprehension. However this site is quite useful for more advanced students.

    The music option of this site is really interesting for my 5 years old daughter although she can't understand many dialogs. Suitable interaction between software and kids make them motivated and enable the kids to keep learning in an imaginary fun world. It's one of the most user friendly software I have ever used for kids. Listen to a story is another option which can be used for elementary level students to enhance their listening skill.

"Learn English Kids" of British Council - 0 views

    This colorful and interesting site is a suitable place for kids of pre-school and also bigger kids to implement their creativity in making stories. Games of this site are focused on words. Relevant pictures along with their pronunciation are served in an easy and fun way which enhances the learning process. I tried this site with my 5 years old daughter and she asked me to play its games over and over. Also she made a story (by my little manipulation) and she felt the joy of being a creative story maker.
