New materials in the SAC!

Our ex­pe­ri­enced team of Eng­lish tu­tors from UCL Cen­tre for Lan­guages and In­ter­na­tional Ed­u­ca­tion has de­vel­oped these new on­line ex­er­cises to help you im­prove your Eng­lish. They are very use­ful and a lot of fun. Try one of the Lunch Hour Lectures Exercises. You will im­prove your lis­ten­ing skills, note-tak­ing skills and vo­cab­u­lary, while watch­ing one of the world re-known lec­tures from UCL.

Or you can try do­ing one of the Reading and Listening Exercises. The top­ics cho­sen by our tu­tors are fun and in­ter­est­ing and you will prac­tise com­pre­hen­sion of writ­ten and spo­ken texts, as well as as­pects of gram­mar and vo­cab­u­lary. These new ma­te­ri­als cover a range of dif­fi­culty lev­els and you can choose the one that is ap­pro­pri­ate for you. They are in­ter­ac­tive, mean­ing that you can ask for help while do­ing the ex­er­cises. You will also re­ceive im­me­di­ate feed­back.

We hope you en­joy the Self-Ac­cess Cen­tre. Good luck!
