A Review of Speaking Lesson Website

Share

There are a lot of websites that can be used to improve our speaking ability. One of them is ESL Gold.net (ESL: ENGLISH STUDY AND LEARNING MATERIALS!) on http://www.eslgold.net. Here I give you a review of this website.

This website is very useful for learning and teaching English. It provides us with some menu on which we can explore our language skills (Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing), study about Grammar, Vocabulary, Pronunciation, TOEFEL/TOEIC, and Idioms.

Here is the display of the website



We can find materials to teach speaking on this website; it is delivered with the level choice (Low Beginning, High Beginning, Low Intermediate, High Intermediate, and Advanced). Or you can choose the materials for teaching speaking based on the categories provided, there are eight categories on the website, those are: Phrases for Conversation, Topics for Conversation, Speaking Situations, Textbook Recommendations, Quick Link, Quizzes, Learning Strategies, Teaching Speaking.

There is a link on this blog Talk to Someone in English!. When you click it, there is an instruction if you want to talk to someone in English using Skype. Actually, Skype is a communication tool that allows users to make audio and video calls over the Internet. Calls to other Skype users are free.

This website provides the teacher with thousands of ideas and materials for your classes and students. Teacher can get many ideas how to teach speaking from this website. ESLgold offers tons of resources for both the ESL and EFL environment. Save hours of preparation time. Also, teacher can use this website to assign students through Quizzes.

For students, this website provides them with a lot of materials to improve their language skills, especially their speaking skill trough Phrases for Conversation, Topics for Conversation, and Speaking Situations. Students can practice based on the given topics, trough some situations and learn some phrases on certain speaking situations.

All materials on ESLgold.net are free of charge and organized by skill and level for quick and easy access. For those reasons, I highly recommended this website both for teachers and students in order to get more knowledge and practices to improve language skills, especially speaking skill.
