Learn English Today

Learn English Today: The name of this website reminds me of one of the most popular catch phrases that private English language coaching institutes in India use. While I wish the website designers had been more creative in picking out a name for their site, I like the site for its accessible and simple lay out. It seems a good resource for both teachers and students. The site can help teachers develop interesting classroom instructions ideas as well relevant content on variety of topics, from Business English, Phrasal Verbs to idioms and proverbs. In terms of learners, I think the site is more suitable for adult/young adult learners as there aren't enough graphics or pictorial representations to attract children. The content too is relevant more for adult learners.
The Check Your Progress feature is interesting. It offers different online and printable games to practice a wide range of vocabulary. The games are interactive and will keep the learners engaged.
