assignment3
I think I learned a lot from the English class today. This is my first time to know ESL Cyber Listening Lab. It divides to three areas, easy, medium, and difficult. So I can choose it according to my English ability. And it also has many interesting dialogs that I can practice my reading. To my surprise, it has listening exercise after the listening is finished. I think it is the most useful that I can check if I understand it or not. So I think it is the very useful website that I have never seen before. I will use it to improve my listening and anything I want to practice.
