NEW LINK

Hi everybody,
Here's a good link for you to practice not only your listening skills but also pronunciation. Do you remember what I told you about 'shadow reading'? Well, this is your site to do it.
Listen to the video chosen first and then turn the volume down (if you can listen to the speaker in the recording, it's fine because it will guide you). So play it again but this time you talk along with it in exactly the same way as the speakers, taking on their accents. If you turn the volume down completely, you will be dubbing the text.
Hope you like it!

How many of the words studied in class can you identify?


By the way, Mitchell and Webb are 2 great comedians!
