Since English is a foreign language (not a second language) in our country, we are rarely provided with the chance to practice our listening and speaking skills outside the context of the language classroom. And we all know that in order to be able to speak a language very well, we first need to listen to it as much as we can. Thanks to www, we can somehow compensate for the non-English speaking environment we're living in. One of the best and most comprehensive websites I have ever visited so far for practicing listening skills is www.esl-lab.com. Here, you can have access to very well-designed listening tasks including pre-listening, listening and post-listening exercises as well as vocabulary activities. I strongly recommend you to give it a try. I’m pretty sure you’ll like it. By the way, you can also make good use of other sections on the website including listening quizzes for academic purposes, 20-minute ESL vocabulary lessons, language learning and life tips, etc.

Go for it and have fun! Remember! Learning a new language is not a picnic but it can be fun!
