Podcasts!!! What a great idea!

What is ESL Podcast?

Podcasts are great free listening activities you can download free from the internet. The topics are varied and interesting: seeing a specialist, dining at a restaurant, you name it!
I would like you to listen to one of these podcasts every day. Don't whine! They only take a few minutes are they are fun to listen to. You will get credit for this. Extra credit. Write a short list of the new words you learnt and give it to me the next day. Easy, isn't it? You could start with the one about soccer (football). You'll see the speaker has a nice Californian accent and speaks slowly.

What is a podcast?
A podcast is an audio file that you download from the Internet. After you download it, you can listen to it on your computer or on an MP3/portable music player (for example, an iPod or iRiver). You can subscribe to a podcast so that it is delivered to you automatically each day, just like a newspaper.
