Giving an opinion and other oral language skills

Here is a site that has pod casts of people giving their opinions on a range of topics. It will give you ideas for giving your own opinion (either spoken or written) and give valuable practice in listening to the opinions that other people give. Make notes as you listen so that you can report to a friend the opinions that people had on the topic being discussed. These pod casts are long (some 60 minutes) but still great listening practice all the same. Have fun with your listening.
Click on the word links at this site for more excellent educational links. See the drop down list. Try exploring the link for video lessons. there are very good clips for pronunciation, listening and speaking vocabulary and learning phrases, starting conversations greetings etc. Pause the video clip and repeat after the presenter until you can say the phrase easily.
