TIP FROM A TEACHER How to learn with your phone Carol Rainbow has been a teacher in the UK for most of her life. In English City, Languagelab's virtual world for teaching English, Carol is called Helen. "My top tip is to make great use of your mobile phone. Even many simple mobile phones can do a lot to help you with your English skills. Depending on what your phone can do, try listening to podcasts whilst travelling, read blogs, the news, watch YouTube videos in English, record yourself and listen to your own pronunciation. Do this every time you have a few minutes spare. Even small regular sessions will help!"
