Learning English in the BBC web

Learning English on websites can be a very useful tool, especially because it makes more fun and interactive the way we learn. In that way, the BBC website is a really good site to learn and practice your English; and besides that you can learn a lot of other things, like news and actuality from the whole world. All these you can find in the section “Words in the news”, where reading news you will learn vocabulary, grammar and some expressions that are very usual in English, but more interesting is the topics of the news. One of the most interesting ones is about the scientific found of new 208 species in Southeast Asia, because that makes me wonder about evolution, especially because one of the recent discovered species is a female only lizard that reproduce by cloning, so maybe true that males are going to disappear someday… (?)
But returning to the main topic, in this section of the BBC website you will learn words and expressions because there is a vocabulary at the end of the news where the words are explained into the context of their use.

Other section that results very interesting for me is the one called “How to…” In this section you can find a program to learn a lot of tips for having conversations and to know how to communicate in some situations, like giving good/bad news, or use language when you’re chatting. And besides, at the end of the program you’ll find a test to check your new vocabulary.

So I think the BBC website is a great site to learn English in a very fun and interesting way, making more interactive and participative the learning process.
