Dear ESL All subscribers
from all around the world,
Our August newsletter
deals with the many ways through which you can
better your English while taking advantage of the
extraordinary film and video resources available
for free on the Internet. Some of these resources
have been especially designed with the needs of
language learners in mind, while others are for
anyone who is interested in film and video material
and understands English well enough to navigate
the English side of the Internet.
This month's issue features
both types of resources. It is true that the sites
that target English as a Second Language learners
will provide greater online language support. However,
we encourage any learner, who is advanced enough
in English, to also visit and make use of the exceptional
resources that can be found in sites designed for
English-speaking users.
There are numerous other
online resources catering to the needs of film
lovers and our task in narrowing down our choice
to only ten sites has not been an easy one. We
hope that our selection will guide you toward many
more new visual resources that will not only deepen
your love and appreciation of films and videos,
but also help you sharpen both your listening and
reading comprehension skills.
Do not hesitate to send
us your comments or questions if you have any.
Happy watching!
The
ESL All Team
