English Learning Websites? - bodhisamaya - 2011-02-19
As many users on this site don't speak English as their first language, I thought this thread might be useful for others as well:

Youtube is a good one I think. They have lessons and endless amounts of practice.
But these websites should reflect the personality of your students. Is one majoring in zoology? Then recommend a website based on that. (But I don't teach English so I may be stating the obvious or something way off.)

Googlebooks (previews of kids books - same way we do it)
Various nameless manga distribution sites (the ones people use to read stuff in English, of course.) They all know certain manga quite well, so it's easy, yah.
Google (search terms: ESL lesson, etc.)
