So, here I am, or rather have been for a week or so. I have, so far, done plenty of sightseeing , learnt a lot of new interesting ideas to use in my classes and made a few friends. So, so far so good.
But you are not probably interested in what a good time I am having ( I am supposed to be working very hard) I am just writing to let you know that I have come across to yet another interesting website I think might be helpful .
This time is a visual dictionary (this always helps) , and it has an interesting section devoted to practising the vocab with games. By the way, it might only help advanced students but for lower level, you can always have a look.
