Learning English today is easier with technology devices like personal computers, smart phone and tablets, which I use to facilitate my English language learning. The main device that helps me to learn English is my PC computer. For example, I use it to attend my English classes, do my homework, and research everything I need to complement my learning. On my computer, I use lots of online websites and platforms, such as Zoom and Teams to communicate and share my screen with my teachers. In addition, I use Google Docs to do my homework because it’s easy to share and get feedback from my teacher. Other specific LMS platforms from my English program are for example Elli, Avenue, and LINC Home Study Modules, which I am using every week for reading, listening, pronunciation and writing as part of my English lessons. In addition to the above mentioned websites, I often use You Tube to watch videos about grammar, or other videos for fun and learning like TED Talk, CBC News, etc. Lastly, I am also using platforms for listening to audiobooks in English like Spotify and Kindle for reading books. In conclusion, all these websites, programs, platforms and devices have been facilitating and helping me a lot to improve my English skills.
