Work-life balance - take a break from intensive studies

We've finished this year course in English for International Business and you all passed your tests successfully. Congratulations! Now you can relax and forget for some time about grammer exercises vocabulary drills and so on...
However, if during your holidays you feel a desire to improve your English skills: have some practice in listening,work on your pronunciation, grammer or pick up some new words, I would recommend you to try new on-line “trainers”: "Как доучить английский" and "Academic Earth" (use the links in Supplementary meterials). From the 1st site you can get to a lot of other free educational resources, including BBC Learning English, the site of free audiobooks etc. "Academic Earth" offers thousands of video lectures of the world's top university professors.
Have a nice summer, enjoy good rest and do not forget English!

  1. Thank you very much for this links. Of course it's necessary for us to practise our language during our holidays. We will try on-line “trainers” and probably some other internet resources. I hope that next year we will have reached higher levels in use of language. And of course I also wish you a really good summer holidays.
