Listening

Choose general and academic topics on http://www.esl-lab.com/index.htm and practice your listening skills in prepared tests. Watch films without subtitles. Listen to BBC Radio or VOA broadcasting with special programs on earth science. I have chosen The Grand Canyon for you in this course. Listen to it as many times as you need to understand most of the speech. You will do more tasks later on.

you should not have problems with basic grammar - check grammar tables of tenses, conditionals, time and wish clauses, including a system of irregular verbs (correction does not work in case you use a correct form of a wrong verb), all on just a few pages on http://verahranac.wz.cz/ Practice more on http://www.nonstopenglish.com/allexercises/
