The weekend has arrived and it's time to slow down and chillax.
What could be better than playing some games and learning at the same time? Yes, many other things- you have got a point here, but if you have too much time on your hands, need to unwind without having a guilty conscience then give these games a try. After all, you are practising your English! I present a list of my favourite ones below. Hope you'll find something for you. ✿ IDIOMS http://www.vocabulary.co.il/idioms/idioms-game-slang-game/ ✿ VOCABULARY http://www.vocabulary.co.il/word-play/vocabulary-quiz/ http://www.vocabulary.co.il/games2/matchit/matchIt.swf http://gamestolearnenglish.com/slow-click/ ✿ PHRASAL VERBS http://www.eslgamesplus.com/phrasal-verbs-catapult/ ✿ ARTICLES http://www.eslgamesplus.com/articles-nouns-quiz/ How many times have I heard a student saying:
”Well, I don’t know but, I guess it doesn’t work for me.” or “I was so busy last week that I couldn’t do the task.” I usually hear these kind of excuses from the lazy and sloppy ones. And in all honesty, I can tell you that I hardly ever hear them from conscientious, hardworking and … yes, successful students. Consistency is a key to success; especially in learning a foreign language. Think how you obtained your mother tongue. How many times you heard a word from your parents; how many times you repeated it and how many times you failed in getting your message across. And yes, you’re right saying that we acquire our first language differently to a foreign one. But, in both cases, there’s a lot of repetition involved. It might be a repetition of single words or chunks of them; shorter or longer utterances. Diligence can do wonders. Do a bit; but do it every day! Don’t procrastinate, don’t wait for your deadline and stop making poor excuses to your teacher and to YOURSELF. Keep on keeping on every day; be diligent in your work and I can guarantee you will see your results. |
