As I was going through my favorites, and all of the great suggestions others contributed, I concluded that it might work best to really create two lists. The first list — this one — will highlight sites that actually have students recording their own voices in a number of different ways and post their speaking assignments online.

The second list, which I’ll publish later this month and will include a number of the sites that readers suggested, will focus on sites where students have to listen to spoken examples for developing better pronunciation skills. That next list will be called “The Best Sites For Learning English Pronunciation.” It’s sort of an artificial division, I know, and obviously in teaching and learning a second language speaking and listening are intertwined. In order to make it on this list, a site had to be free, easy to use, and accessible to English Language Learners. Voice Thread is well-known. Related. Merriam-Webster's Learner's Dictionary. Free ESL Resources for Learning English Online: Pronounciation and Speaking.

The Best Websites For Learning English Pronunciation. Ways to Help ELLs Learn Pronunciation is the headline of one of my Education Week Teacher columns. I had to make a lot of difficult choices to come up with this latest “The Best…” list. One decision I made was to focus this list more on Beginning and Early Intermediate English Language Learners, or for more advanced ELL’s who primarily would use these sites more to “brush-up” or review some basic pronunciation skills. I am developing another list that I’ll call The Best Sites For Developing English Conversational Skills. That one will probably be geared more towards Intermediate and Advanced English Language Learners, and will include more of the sites I received from readers in my call for recommendations. Several readers recommended sites using the phonetic alphabet. In addition, I had a very difficult time ranking this particular list. As with all my “The Best…” lists, links to these sites can also be found on my website.
