Always wanted to comment but don't know how?

There have been some very thoughtful stories and comments this year on our Navitas Distance Learning  blog. 

Writing a comment on the  blog is a great way to feel part of our Distance Learning community. Also it's a marvelous way to use English in real life. You can add your thoughts on a story, answer a blog discussion question or write your own question.

So here's a video for you this week on how to comment. Before you can add a comment you need to sign in with a gmail or a google account. Here's a link to another video: How to make a google account 2015.

So let's go! 

• Do you comment on Facebook or other blogs?
• What type of comment is interesting?
• Comments can sometimes be negative. Why is it important to always write positive comments? 

STUDENT FEEDBACK

We are very interested in any feedback you have.  Your feedback helps us understand what you need so that we can improve your experience with Distance Learning.

You can give us your feedback in one of these ways:

1. Client Satisfaction Surveys - Your teacher will send you the link from time to time
2. Talk to one of our Pathways Advisors 
3. The Feedback section of the DL Portal website: amepdl.net.au
4. The Feedback section of this blog

We will be happy to answer your questions or comments.  Here are 2 comments we received from the Client Satisfaction Survey:

Can you recommend some books about pronunciation for me?

This will depend on your level and what problem areas you need to work on.  One helpful way is to practise saying minimal pairs which are two words that sound the same except for one sound only and they are often confusing to the language learner.  Examples berry/very or bed/bad.  Try this website to help you listen and practise:  http://www.shiporsheep.com

I would prefer to include more grammar in the books.

Under Links on this blog we have saved useful English language websites on our Wiki.  There you can find lots of grammar exercises to practise.  Look for Grammar in the green section on the left of the website.
