What a shame nobody came to my computer session this evening.
But just for all you budding computer boffs out there (and I know there are a few of you) we are now prepared to lend out some of our CD ROMS from upstairs. You can only borrow them for a few days, but we have CD ROMS for all levels full of English language exercises and games for you to use on a computer in the schoolor at home. Just ask Jackie if you want to see any of them and how they work.
We also have a new programme installed on the first computer on the left as you go in the computer room. At the moment we only have a single license, so it's only installed on one computer. It's the Advanced Pronunciation In Use CD ROM. It's full of exercises to practise some of the more difficult features of pronunciation like getting the stress right and not over-pronouncing sounds that we tend to swallow in English. You can listen and record yourself too and compare the sound. There's also an interactive phoneme chart that shows you how to make different sounds, with a different graphic for male and female voices (we do sound a bit different from each other!!) Again, if you are not sure how to use it, just ask Jackie for some help.
