Supplementary Materials

First of all when we are talking about supplemental materials, we are talking about materials which we can use to reinforce our English classes like:

  • HotPotatoes

  • Wikis

  • Podcast

  • Youtube Videos

  • Online Quiz

  • Blogs

  • Videos

  • Flash cards
Now here you have some links in which you can use these extra materials. But there is not any software , program or virtual classroom which can replace the teaching work. This web pages are just for helping us to guide our students into their learning process but we can not leave the whole work to them, because as i already said, nothing replace a good teacher.

Evaluation of a Coursebook


I analyzed this Course book 7° Básico Travelers (Alvarado Lina). And my conclusion is that this Coursebook might be used just if the teacher has extra material to complement this coursebook with. Because in general terms this book needs some extra practics in speaking and listening comprehension.
