Specifically, which of the extra links that I have posted on the site this year have you

found most useful/interesting? (1)• Those about vocab building, I liked the links of dictionaries or about idioms for

kids.

• BBC Podcasts

• It was link about family tree [BBC ‘Who do you think you are?’] and also BBC links.

• http://phras.in

• I like the grammer ones - I can practice grammer in funny way. I enjoyed videos as well.

• when you attached audio commentary to homework - it was very helpful.

Specifically, which of the extra links that I have posted on the site this year have you

found most useful/interesting? (2)• www.engvid.com, http://rollsoffthetongue.tumblr.com/ and of course the youtube

video of Wooster and Jeeves - it was great!

• The Phras.In tool is brilliant, although it ultimately helps me find new interesting information about phrases and just rarely the right answer for what I'm looking for :D It's like buying clothes you could never expect to spend your money on.

• I don´t remember specifically, but I think I’ve found all your links very useful.

• Internet links. Answer keys to exercises from class/homework

• BBC Podcasts and all links related with the exam preparation

• http://www.englishcentral.com/

• The one with most common words in English. It had a form of quiz. [http://quizicon.com/100-Most-Common-English-Words-Quiz.html]

• I really enjoyed the oneword.com

Do you have a message for teachers who don't use Edmodo at the moment?

(in the students’ own words)

As for myself, Edmodo is a great thing for students and teachers as well. I

appreciate extra information which we were given. I would totally recommend

it :)

It is very useful for students because if you miss a lesson you can easily find information about homework, etc.

I think it is really good thing. Other teachers should use it as well.

it is good for students who missed the lesson, they can find HW there

Edmodo is amazing and very useful. Sometimes when I couldn’t come to the lesson, thanks to Edmodo I knew what was happening and what was

given for homework.

Edmodo provides a whole new experience in learning and it should be used as a essential tool for all teachers

and students.

Please use it, your students will appreciate it!

If I miss lesson, it is very useful to see what was the lesson about. And it is

great that I do not have to remember homeworks :-)

Start to use it.

For teachers who don't use Edmodo: Please try to use it - it is very helpful

for ;)

Edmodo concentrates all necessary information on one place, so that

students don´t have to ask each other if they have any doubts. They have list

of all interesting and useful links on one place.

Please, start to use edmodo and make your students happy :)

Use Edmodo as much as possible!!!

You should use it, because today it is better way how you can comunicate

with us and share tips, links and opinion :) Young people use internet

almost every day and this is more comfortable for us :)

Guys, if you are lazy to create your own system and make studying at your language school easier for students, at

least join existing system and learn how to use it!
