Elllo Listening Site. Listen, read the script (if needed) and take the quiz

Elllo stands for English Lesson Listening Library. It  is a short video site or slide share site  where students can listen to  and view short videos/presentations. There is a script for the texts you hear and the recordings are pretty clear. When you finish listening you can just do the listening quiz.

LEVEL:  Lower intermediate or upper 

Warning:  It might be difficult to find the audios  you like as the web is a bit chaotic and you seem to need either the number of the video or the name of the  series to which it belongs. 

This is the link to the site: HERE

See the links to the videos I have chosen  for you below but feel free to browse around!

 
These are some of the examples you may like:

a. Trip to Cambodia:  Julia tells us about a memorable trip in Cambodia to raise money for a charity. .It includes the audio and a slide presentation of her trip as well as the script, vocabulary and quiz. There are 4 presentation on the same subject.

b. Take a peek at the section  "Talking Points"
My suggestion:

• TAKE THE QUIZ
• LISTEN 
• TAKE THE QUIZ AGAIN
• CHECK THE SCRIPT IF YOU FEEL YOU NEED TO

These are the Talking points I liked: 

b.1. American cities  HERE. 
b.2. Best movies ever HERE
b.3. Different jobs the speaker (Todd)  has had HERE
