The books on this site are a true salvation. They set the benchmark for mastering skills in any professional field.
Each topic has small texts for translation, audio and dialogue to them, as well as assignments to reinforce the material. After going through each topic, I form a bank of new words and arrange dictations.


Преимущества


  • The site provides access to professional books




Недостатки


  • Some of these series are not in the public domain, you have to order them.
  • There are no workbooks, and free downloads take an hour.

When it comes to product quality, the name of Cambridge Dictionary speaks for itself. Here you can see how a word is translated in context, for example: interest/percent. The usual translators come up with a whole list of words, and the variety of translations blows your mind. So, it is better to turn to Cambridge Dictionary and not worry about the quality of the information.


Преимущества


  • You can listen to American and British pronunciation.




Недостатки


  • Often it is not possible to see the Russian translation, in which case the dictionary gives the definition in English.
