Professional Review

CABE is an ESL bilingual resource web site which provides a wealth of information for bilingual
educators and students. The site contains Language Connect, a site for computer based language learning
tools such as Knowledge Adventure. It has information on sales on computer programs for English for Spanish
speakers; in addition, the site has software for learning French, German, and Japanese. Furthermore,
CABE
contains information on technical support for the software and how users can
access technical support online.
Another useful link is Linguaweb, a site dedicated for linguistic studies on Spanish and Catalan
etymology . It is informative and contains information on the origins of
names. Last but not least, there is a consulting service for prospective international
students who want to find schools in the USA and information on college
admissions and test taking. Because of its completeness, we highly recommend CABE
to other language teaching professionals.
Aardvark’s English Forum and EFL Resources
This ESL/EFL site provides many interesting hyperlinks that are relevant to ESL/EFL students and teachers. I definitely
recommend this site to all English Languages Teachers and Learners.
It provides a message board, interactive English language exercises, news, dictionary interfaces, and much more. The message
board is used by teachers and students of English. Many messages are friendly messages from students in other countries that
are just looking for someone to communicate or perhaps they just have a question. One message was from an English teacher
looking for ESL students to write to her students, in other words, she was looking for pen pals. The dictionary interface link
provides students with different definitions and uses the words in different context thus improving their vocabulary. This web
site also provides students with audio and visual news.
It also provides students and teachers with various search engines and the
opportunity to add their favorite EFL links, travel link, books and media, and resources and contacts.
I definitely recommend this website, it is interesting and engages the user in real life interaction with other English language
learners and native speakers.
