What makes it good?
The reading and listening activities center around a point and click approach. Writing activities include typing and drag and drop activities. Speaking allows the user to use a microphone to compare their own samples with the pre-recorded ones. All of the activities are easy to use and very straightforward. They are somewhat repetitive by nature; however, the use of photos, real voices, and variety of exercises make this online resource on of the better ones I have seen.
