It’s been a long time since my last update. My apologies for the delay. I’m back and ready to help bring you more useful links to help your learning than ever:-)

Let’s kick things off with one of my favorite sites: This I believe.

You’ll find hundreds of short but powerful essays written by famous and not-so-famous authors. You can also listen to the audio for each essay, so there is plenty of English practice waiting for you. Here’s a description of the This I believe project:

This I Believe, Inc., was founded in 2004 as a not-for-profit organization that engages youth and adults from all walks of life in writing, sharing, and discussing brief essays about the core values that guide their daily lives.
This I Believe is an international project engaging people in writing and sharing essays describing the core values that guide their daily lives. Over 70,000 of these essays, written by people from all walks of life, are archived here on our website, heard on public radio, chronicled through our books and television programming, and featured in weekly podcasts. The project is based on the popular 1950s radio series of the same name hosted by Edward R. Murrow.
