What makes it good?
I think this website is a great TESL resource. The website provides great reading and writing activities for the student. There is a wide selection of articles updated often and there is a good range of interactive activities that are just long enough to challenge but not bore the students. The activites for the most part are simple multiple choice that allow the students to practice word choice and sequencing. However, the last activity allows for writing practice in which the students make an online entry relating to the article. Overall, I think this website is a very useful as an activity for students as well as a valuable resource for the teacher who can easily adapt material from the various activities to work on other skills.
