Dear Vanessa!
ReplyDeleteI studied the recommended yourself site "BBC English page for NS 4-11". I think this site very helpful for beginners (I mean myself of course too) despite it intended for children. All instructions written on simple English and this fact make the site very important for beginners. I found there lot helpful things that help me to comprehend the text. I was very glad to read the materials on this site. Must be more that sites like that!
Regards
Mark.
Thanks Mark. I agree that children's learning pages are great for English learners. As I mentioned earlier, I have been working on a post with more. Maybe I should post it now and not wait to add more to it. I can always add another post later.
ReplyDeleteThese sites have many advantages for learners. Not only are instructions written in simpler English, but there are also usually more pictures and illustrations to help you figure out meanings. Besides - these pages are often more colorful and entertaining.
