A good site for learning English

Question

Hi everybody. Does anyone know a name of a good site for learning English? Lately I've noticed that my English level is getting worse. I want a site with video lessons (explaining English grammar in English) just like here on Spanish Dict. So do you know one?

Thanks so much

I just changed two commas to periods. - --Mariana--, Oct 2, 2010

But why Marianne ? I always write '' Hi everybody '' and put a comma after it , and no one has corrected me on that before ! - 00b6f46c, Oct 2, 2010

your English has improved Lovely, but taking yourself to a higher level is always a good thing , best of luck.. - ray76, Oct 2, 2010

You English has improved, Lovely. We are trying to make better corrections to help the non-native English speakers. So it might seem like you are being corrected more, but you are doing so well that we can make correction like we would make on higher leve - sanlee, Oct 2, 2010

l students, Lovely. You have really improved so much!.We are all getting corrected lately on our Spanish and English. Please don't get discouraged... - sanlee, Oct 2, 2010

See lovely, I should have put, "Your English has improved"......correcting. - sanlee, Oct 2, 2010

You put a comma after it when it's a salutation, at the beginning of a letter. You would use a period here because it's a sentence. - Echoline, Oct 2, 2010

This is a good question. - JoyceM, Oct 2, 2010

Answer 1

Thank you so much everybody for the links I am sure they will help me a lot

And a very big graaaaaaaacias for everyone who has corrected my mistakes. I really really appreciate those corrections and they also help me a lot

P.S : Thanks for the cheering words and for helping me with the punctuation problem ( comma and period )

@ Sanlee's post : Oh now I know why I am getting more corrections . I thought it was just me and I felt very embarrassed

As a rule, you need to place a period at the end of every sentence. - JoyceM, Oct 2, 2010

Answer 2

Hello Lovely. Another nice new avatar I see.

The BBC, British Broadcasting Corporation, has a section for English students. I haven't used it, but you may want to try.

BBC Learning English

The Spanish pages of the main language section are quite interesting, I've attached the link for anyone who wants to have a look.

BBC Languages

You can find several other languages there, French, German, Italian etc, and a new section on Arabic.

Gracias Fontanero. La Bbc es excelente. - Carlos-F, Oct 3, 2010

Answer 3

Connect with English (also available on DVD, I believe) is presented by the Annenberg Media. I listened and watched the series they do at this same site for learners of Spanish.

Que excelente referencia, Janice. Gracias. - Carlos-F, Oct 3, 2010

Answer 4

Does anyone else have any suggestion for me ?

Have any: If after Hi guys, how are thigs etc, that is OK , but If you then start speaking of a different subject you then need a period so that you can start a new sentence. - ray76, Oct 2, 2010

www.busuu.com - This is a good site. I learned a fair amount of Spanish here, really interactive and fun, for the first week you get a tester premium account

Yes, I think that this ".edu" site dedicated to the memory of Dr. Charles Darling might prove useful to you. Hey, I think it might prove useful to me, too!!

Please, if you have a look, come back and tell me what you think of it.

Oh..that site does not have video lessons. I will post another one that does. - Janice, Oct 2, 2010
