In theory English language teachers should all be redundant because everything you need to learn English is already on-line. I've spent a lot of time creating portals for these resources. This page also contains some miscellaneous teaching links, and some materials I’ve created.

EFL Porals

General EFL Portal for English Students

The best of the portals. It’s divided into sections for reading, listening, and writing activities.

Earlier versions of this site are ABC Barcelona   and Prototype  

British Council Portal
