Iowa Intensive English Program


PRACTICE AND LEARN ENGLISH ON THE WEB

 

Reading English on the World Wide Web is a good way to practice using the English language, and it is also a good way to practice using the Internet. First, choose the skill that you want to practice (for example, listening/speaking, reading, or writing), and then explore the different activities. Also, follow the link to Eastern Washington University and meet some students at that English Program.
