If you want to learn Phrasal verbs ;)
Search Results for 'acquire' - UsingEnglish.com I found this site is very useful for learning phrasal verbs. For example , I wrote "go" on the empty box and searched it. All prepositions which are used for "go" appeared on the screen. :)
Christmas Vocabulary Game
Christmas Vocabulary Game These games are very enjoyable for learning English. It gives you also orally feedback like "yes!, ups!". When most of us learned something by using our visuality, the things we tried to learn go to our long-term memory. We can easily remember the words with this activity. Have a good time ! :)

Alice- chat bot
I chose Alice robot, because it is very easy to access. When I tried to chat with jabberwacky, it was very slow and I had to wait to get the answer.Although jabberwacky has some tools like showing your emotions on the button, Alice is more simple . Two chat boxes has some mistakes that they use some slang like silly. Although this tool can be provided to the students to learn English, those slangs cause them to learn it in a bad way. If a student want to improve his/ her English , one has no need for finding a native friend or somebody else. This chat box provides this situation. It is a robot' speech which looks like a human's talk. While I am teaching English, the time for conversation may be limited ,so I can give homework to talk about whatever the topic is with this tool. For example , İf ı taught past tense to the students, I can ask them to talk to the machine by using past tense ,copy the dialogue and bring it to me. The students can learn from this tool new patterns.
When I will be a teacher, I want to
create a chat bot for me. Therefore students can go into conversation with me.
It looks like a real life situation more. Moreover, students can learn the
colourful patterns below.
