EnglishCentral.com is a unique video-based program that is perfect for computer lab classes or as homework. There are over 8,000 video clips from a wide variety of sources, such as TED Talks and Voice of America. Most of the videos are authentic, though there are also some "made for ESL" clips that are especially helpful for providing lower-level students with the comprehensible and basic input that they need in functional areas such as agreeing and disagreeing.
EnglishCentral aims to become the premier, web-based conversational English language learning destination for desktop and mobile users.
They focus on helping users with their spoken English, using proprietary speech recognition technology that “listens” to users’ speech and then scores that speech based on their pronunciation and syntax. Teachers can set up classes and assign video lessons to students. Further, get full reports of student achievement and progress. Get more info ....
