Teentalk
Canada makes learning everyday English easy. Students
are presented with authentic dialogues and interviews.
The students utilize the material from the interviews
to practice and develop various skills. For example,
doing puzzles based on content comprehension, reconstructing
key phrases from the interviewees' answers and completing
a number of exercises based on listening comprehension.
Studio-recorded and text versions are great tools
for beginners as they can be accessed if students
experience difficulty understanding verbal cues and
dialogues. A built in dictionary is easily accessible
and provides easy to understand definitions.
Traditional
gapfill exercises have taken on new features. If the
student doesn't know the word, the original phrase
can be played back or Teentalk Canada spells the word
out loud letter by letter.
Teentalk
Canada contains new grammar exercises that challenge
the student to make connections between simple grammatical
rules and example phrases. The program checks students'
answers and provides students and teachers with a
continuous progress record.
