Languages are taught
in a different way today. Some years ago, students could sit for a
language exam without speaking that particular language. Nowadays
it’s impossible! Part of the exam includes listening and speaking.
How about using a radio to improve the level of the language? It
would be a good idea because students would start listening to a
native speaker, speaking at his/her own speed!
I do remember some
students who would take great interest to participate in a quiz.
Besides practising the language, they had to use their minds to
formulate the answers. The best of it was that as they were listening
to a live transmission, they could take part in it. On the other
hand, they couldn’t play back at the moment to re-listen to some
parts! So they had to listen in silence and work together as a team!
Today we’re
showing how to use VLC in order to listen to the many internet radios! It is available for Windows, Mac, Android
and Linux. Just click here.
Apart from using the
search field, you can search for radio stations by countries,
languages, and tags.
