Listen and Write

WHAT is Listen and Write?














ADVANTAGES:

I found that this website is quite useful and practical for language teachers and learners in improving their listening skills. This is because:

(a) Students have the opportunity to practise listening skill ( as mentioned above) since the text is repeated for
     several times.
(b) It helps to develop students' vocabulary on their own. They may be exposed to words that are rarely can 
      be found in a normal text. ( I believe that it is an advantage to use current news because fresh vocabulary
      can be introduced to them.) 
(c) This is NOT only a good listening practice, but also a spelling task for all.
(d) Students from all level of competency can try this out out because there are variety of levels that can be
      chosen.
(e) It encourages students to work independently at home and not only depending on teachers' homework.
