compliment your course by bringing language learning to
life..
The Internet also
offers exciting opportunities for meaningful interaction in the target language.
This interaction can take place between the students and native speakers
anywhere in the world. The interaction can be asynchronous (email) or
synchronous in the form of audio chats or voice and video messaging.

TOEIC Preparation
There is quite a lot of English language material online but motivation is always in the hands of the user. I am the webmaster of two training websites that motive. For those wishing to learn English www.onlineenglish.de and for thoise wishing to learn English and prepare for the TOEIC www.onlineenglish.de/toeicprep.
The creation of language training websites is a major task requiring a lot of creativity and I worked long and hard to finish them. I have just opened the new TOEIC preparation website and would welcome comments for improvement, marketing ideas, offers of partnrship ...etc
I would be very pleased if you would consider adding my websites to your links.
