SPEECHYARD!!


speechyard



Speechyard is a platform that allows English students, specially those at an intermediate and advanced level, learn English through films, series and books.
You have to sign up with your Facebook account or email address and then select your language, which will be used for translations.
Go to the content tab to choose either films or series or books. In the learning page you can learn the words and expressions that you have previously selected while watching a film or reading a book. And you can use the community page to practise your English with other learners.
There are thousands of full movies, series and books to choose from.
This video explains how Speechyard works.

Unit 2A: FLU or COLD?

Do you know the difference between the flu and the cold?

Watch the video to find out!

Lots of interesting vocabulary from unit 2A and good listening practice.


















He recommended to have a "flu jab" (to be vaccinated) to certain groups of people.

Have a look at the NHS flu jab campaign from last year. It's quite funny.



Unit 2A: ILLNESSES AND SYMPTOMPS





In unit 2A there are tons of new vocabulary, here I made a selection by including some of the illnesses. 

Click on the following link where you will find a "quick test" to revise on the vocabulary looked at  in Unit 2A( Illnesses & symptoms). Also, once on this website, you'll see different tabs ( Race, speller, scatter....) where you can revise the same vocabulary in different ways.
