If you become <span class="GINGER_SOFATWARE_correct">member of the site you can download the exercises. <span class="GINGER_SOFATWARE_correct">lyricstraining This is another <span class="GINGER_SOFATWARE_correct">webpage to <span class="GINGER_SOFATWARE_correct">practise English with songs. You can choose the difficulty of the exercise which consists of filling in the gaps with the correct word.

 * UK Jobs Guide. It is not the <span class="GINGER_SOFATWARE_correct">webpage we saw in class but it is a similar one where you can find information about job vacancies in the UK. It can be useful to use in class as it contains up-to -date information about jobs in the UK and students can use it to learn new vocabulary.
