My words

This blog is aimed at motivating students of English to use the language and improve their skills.
Most students complain about not having enough time to study and when they do have it, they are tired of doing grammar exercises. In this blog you will find links to TV series, interviews, funny videos and news, as well as exercises, and they are all self-learning-oriented. Apart from this, the design of this blog allows and encourages students to take part and use English outside school, and more importantly, with a communicative purpose.
Thank you very much, I hope you have fun!
Josu Zabala.
