Breaking News EnglishPresents News Items in

British and American English both in

written and in spoken format.

Every item is presented in an audio file as well as in a written newspaper article.

Breaking News EnglishFor every news item there are around 30-40 different kinds of exercises for the learners to engage in.

These exercises are of many different kinds and presented in different formats.

The feedback the learner gets is therefore also of different kinds, but most of it is in the form or a right/wrong answer.
