Hi parents,
Just found a quite good English learning website. There are listening, vocabulary and grammar quiz for each day. The dialog is not too long and kids can listen to the accents and try to catch up speed of the foreigners everyday.
I would recommend parents to help the kids to take care and remind the kids of the weak form and linking of English during the listening. Foreign speakers do not speak word by word. For instance, you do not expect foreigners to speak "interested in" (unless they are going to emphasis something) but more often they will speak "interestedin" instead. Ask the kids where is the linking and the weak form of the dialog will help them to improve their listening skills.
