I am not sure wether this topic was on the forum, if it did, I am sorry for repeating it.
I thought we could make here a kind of data base of podcast you use to learn English.
I am going to share with you free sources/sites I find useful. If you have something to add- feel free to post it below, I will check it out and we can also help other English learners ;)
As I think it isn't allowed to post links here, I give only names of the pages you can find them:
1. Luke English Podcast on Audioboo (my favourite one! BrE)
2. Spotlight Radio (great source for low-intermediate students, it is quite slowly spoken)
3. ESL pod (AmE)
4. University of Oxford podcasts
5. TED (videos)
6. The British History Podcasts
7. ESL bits
8. Lit2Go- is an online library with pdf files and read content.
Please share your stuff with us!
Thank you very much Ania.
I listened to Luke English Podcast on Audioboo: it is amazing.
I tried Spotlight Radio too, It is comfortable to listen to it when you cannot concentrate too much but you want to practice English.
I find podcasts very useful. I like British English so I mostly listen to them, but I am sure there a lots of other podcasts as well.
1. BBC podcasts (My most favourite. There are tons, can be found on official site).
2. The Guardian Audio ( http://www.theguardian.com/audio )
3. Historyextra / BBC History Magazine ( http://www.historyextra.com/podcasts )
4. Breaking News English ( http://www.breakingnewsenglish.com ) - with exercises, PDF activities and worksheets.
Not that long time ago I found myself very frustrated about my English level.I went to vacation to Sedney and it was quite difficult for me to communicate with receptionist in one of hotels I stayed in.Back than I started searching web for some great course which will give me opportunity to improve my language skills.After long hours or days on wab I run into this cool webapge http://www.bellsenglishonline.com/. and from there I started learning proper English.I recommend it to anyone beginners or Intermidate levels.
I love Luke's podcasts, too. He've recently made one with girls from All Ears English, they have a lot of podcasts to download on their page. Great tool for American accent fans.
Yes, l love Luke and his sense of humour :D l am definitely addicted to his podcasts, l recommend you his fb page, too. It's one of English sources that make me concentrated on for long time.
