The English Student
The English Student is a fun site for visual learners. ESL tutor Jenny combines her love of teaching with her love of illustration. She creates attractive visual aids for English language learners, and makes it fun to learn new words and phrases. She also writes useful blog posts in easy English. Jenny thinks of interesting words and phrases that you may not encounter in other learning materials. For example, she created a poster of condiments, so that you can learn words like mustard and soy sauce.
