#5: How do you like ESL Randall's Cyber Listening Lab as a language learning resource?

I love the website so much.  Because it's much useful for anyone who is really poor in English listening such as me.  In general, listening has more problems than other English skills for Taiwanese.  Because we already have practiced a lot of readings and grammar in our past school lives but less practiced in our listening skills.  Naturally our listening skills is relatively weak, so we must need more practicing in listening.  Before I know this website, I often used TED to train my listening. It's also a awesome website for listening but it's different from ESL Randall's Cyber Listening Lab. TED is harder, and the contents of TED are many kinds of speech.  It may make some people feel that is too hard to listen.  On the contrary, ESL Randall's Cyber Listening Lab's contents are more simple.  It divides into three levels, and most subjects are related to our daily lives. After doing the listening, you are going to have a small quiz about the content of listening, so you can test yourself and check the answer.  Then you will know how many points you can understand.  Since, I will recommend anyone who want to improve their listening skills this website.
