Tough Work (Assignment 1 )

1.
Name of the website: English for Medical Professionals

Website address: http://www.englishclub.com/english-for-work/medical-vocabulary.htm

Content: the vocabulary we need in the hospital includes vocabulary, body, supplies, specialists, diagnosis, visiting, appointments, and many quiz about those topics above.

Strengthens:
1. To interpret medical terms in simple ways
2. There are also some quizzes to make sure I realize those words’ true meanings

Weakness: lack of pictures to make it concrete

Five-star grading: ☆☆☆☆


2.
Name of the website: Learning English Online

Website address: http://www.englisch-hilfen.de/en/exercises_list/aussprache.htm

Content:
It contains words used in daily life at home and in a variety of circumstances, and commercial activities in workplace, etc.
This website designs many “games,” so-called quiz, about pronunciation, confusing Words, crosswords, Fill-in Exercises, Hangman, listening comprehension, matching, multiple choice, opposites, synonyms, paraphrasing, pictures, pronunciation, reading comprehension, quiz, spelling, word formation.

Strengthens:
Those are very useful and essential and I think I had better memorize all of them. If I can distinguish some familiar pronunciation of a word from another, my accent must be approved and be closer to the native speakers.

Weakness: the amount of the wordbank is a little bit too small

Five-star grading: ☆☆☆☆
