Rating of top sites by Evgenia Legchilina

Now, fortunately, there are many free resources that allow you to master English in a convenient format. Grammar is studied not only through textbooks, you can watch a video with a native speaker who will explain everything clearly; or learn words from songs. I myself love to write out slang from TV shows and I advise everyone to use this way to build up their vocabulary. In this selection, I bring you useful resources that will help you learn English with pleasure. Podcasts, free movies, video lessons, and radio stations. Choose the option that suits you best and write in the comments how you are most interested in learning new things in English.

I recommend using Engvid.com for lessons with adult students. It's an excellent website where native speakers upload short lessons, and they are from different countries such as Canada, the USA, and the UK, which will help the student get used to different accents. The videos are divided into levels, from elementary to advanced, and cover all grammar and vocabulary topics. Each video is accompanied by a test to check the material covered. This resource is suitable for any lesson.

For advanced students, I recommend TED.com. In addition to videos interpreting pressing social issues, scientific discoveries, and insights, you will find texts and subtitles for each talk.

The BBC Learning English website is a treasure trove of knowledge and a lifesaver for teachers who want to diversify their lessons. Pronunciation lessons, videos with unusual facts, texts for students from elementary to advanced level, mini-series using business English and for applicants to foreign universities are just some of the site's usefulness.

Podcasts are great for learning English. BBC WORLD SERVICE broadcasts 6 Minute English - 6 minute dialogues about a topic, the speakers speak slowly and clearly and explain 4-5 new words with examples of their use.
English We Speak is only 3 minutes, but gives a lot of useful information. The hosts break down popular idioms and colloquialisms, while also providing some laughs and food for thought.

VOA English is well-suited for elementary and intermediate level adult learners, with lots of video and audio material on the site, always accompanied by a transcript. The resource contains videos and articles that break down new words, with topics ranging from news reports to facts about emotional intelligence. Video or audio is easy for students to understand, as speakers speak at an intermediate level of English.

I recommend Luke's English Podcast for advanced students, the podcast is hosted by a professional teacher, talking about the culture of Britain, interviewing other teachers and explaining different rules of English, including the use of phrasal verbs. You can also choose podcasts on topics of interest to students.
