Learning English through Internet

Post by sugar lee » Sat Apr 17, 2004 10:15 am

Surfing on the Internet has been the most popular way to learn English because it is convenient as well as entertaining. Firstly, teachers easily communicate important tidings to students. For example, our teacher always gives us good opinions about our assignments or corrects them through the Internet. Moreover, by handing in our homework through Internet, we could reduce quantity of papers. Secondly, a few websites also provide us with beautiful essays. For example, studio classroom divides every essay into several paragraphs and send them every day. A website, Actual Living English, also offer a vocabulary every day for us. It’s a nice arrangement because if someday I ‘am too busy to get the computer on, I wouldn’t miss and still spend other time on learning them. Finally, a few websites supply amusing games and online radio programs to attract our attention and help us learn English effectively. For example, ALE website teach us many vocabularies through an interesting game&#65293;English sharp shooter. Then, I would listen to the online radio to train my listening comprehension without spending money to buy CDs. To sum up, we maybe learning English well or improving English abilities, if we can make good use of the Internet.
The website is at:

Do you have good experience of learning English through Internet? Can you show those email address for me? Thanks a lot!

Yes! Internet gives us a lot of convenience. Internet is a useful tool for learning English. We can get many messages from the Internet and learn them. Internet also provides many materials and many types of learning methods. Although Internet has many merits for learning, I don't like learn something throughout the Internet. I hate to watch the monitor, the screen for a long time because my eyes will feel very tied and uncomfortable. It is the reason that I like the tranditional teaching method. However, something interesting,new, and needed to be in the interactive way often happens on the Internet. We still need its existence.

With the prevalence of the Internet, it becomes a more convenient and cheaper way for us to get information. For example, if we want to learn English, it is not necessary for us to buy lots of magazines, and we just can learn it through surfing some websites on the Internet everday, like Washing Times. We can see the latest world news in such website, and it saves us either time to read the whole newspaper or the money to buy it. As a result, to study English on the Internet is really a wise method.
