Hello everyone !

Over the past years, technology has developed so quickly and this has affected everyone. Its influence upon education has been immense for some time now. One of the ways for practical usage of tech in education is applications. Especially, in language learning/teaching, it is possible to find hundreds of apps. Apps come in handy to provide support for language learners now that we live in an era where people sleep with their mobile phones and wake up with them.

This time, I will introduce you an English learning/teaching app called: English Class Lite. Let me say you first that this app is completely free and does not requires any payment after using it a few times.

Also, you can check the app's web site here. You can download it from App Store or Google Play.

         

This app has grammar explanations. It also has vocabulary, verbs 
and phrases sections but there is not an actual explaining for them. It shows commonly used examples for each category. It allows you to listen to these words,too. You can switch between British English and American English for pronunciation.

However, when it comes to practicing, this app has many exercises for each category, including 
listening.


You can choose the topic you want to practice. For instance ; if you want to have a grammar exercise specifically focused on one thing, you can choose it. You also have options on how many questions you want as you could see in the left column. These are all valid for each category. It has a result section so that you could see which exercises you completed. 

Also, I recommend you to use this app with kids whose are in the beginning or elemantary level.


This app can be given as an extra source for both learning and practicing to students. You can specifically choose a category and topic for them to practice. After finishing, you can ask students to point out their wrong answers and instead of making an explanation yourself, you pick one of the students who get the correct answer. By doing so, students actively show you how effectively they understand a topic and also you can get a chance to listen to them speaking in target language.

Do not forget to explore some other applications for your students ! See you in another post.
