Few teachers are convinced by the concept of online English courses; they sound too much like course-providing on the cheap. That's why the approach taken by the Let's Learn English website is so much more attractive. The site bills itself as an online self access centre, "a perfect complement to the classroom, providing a wealth of exercises to supplement classroom study". Note the word "wealth": there are over 1,000 units and 10,000 test items.

A placement test assigns the student to one of six levels from which they can select activities to work on vocabulary, grammar, listening, speaking, writing, reading and exam practice. Exercise types are mainly multiple choice and gapfill which is slightly restricting, but the variety added by the reading and listening activities and the record and playback on the speaking makes this a rich and satisfying resource.

Let's Learn English is very handy for homework and remedial and extension activities. The price? Surprisingly economical at between £1 - £10 per student per year depending on numbers. Contact Clarity for more information.
