Arlyn Freed's ESL/EFL Listening Resources
I created a web site a couple of years ago that was
born to help my students (university-bound adults,
ESL, ESP, EAP).
The most popular page is where I list and review
obsure sites for listening practice.
Go directly to the listening page at
There are some
more resources in the Speaking Resources sections for
pronunciation practice. I'm always adding to the site
so it is a work in progress. I hope you find it
useful.
All the best,
Arlyn Freed

"Integrating the Internet into the Classroom: An Online Course" (ED

principles and hands-on skills needed to enhance your teaching with
Internet resources and activities. This online course is appropriate
for ESL and mainstream teachers at the elementary, secondary and
college level.
Participants will access a bank of Web sites focused on their specific
teaching area, learn to search for and evaluate Web sites efficiently,
explore techniques for integrating Internet resources into lesson
plans, and create Web pages and online activities designed specifically
for their particular students. Participants receive a high level of
individualized support from the instructor and collaborate with fellow
teachers via an electronic bulletin board and a class Email list.
The course requires an average of two hours of work per day for three
weeks for most participants. The time and place one works is
completely flexible. Participants do not have to be online at the same
time of day. The only requirements to take the course are basic email
and keyboarding skills, and very limited experience surfing the Web.

advanced computer users alike have rated this course very highly.
