I used the FSI French course with great success, so I guess that the language drills and exercises are just what the doctor ordered. However, I'm still in need of a similarly structured course in english.
I can read almost every document in english and understand spoken english with little to no difficult. However, when I need to speak, especially in front of an audience or in stress situations, I often find myself searching for the right words, and I know very well that my accent is not perfect (I still have problems with the "th" and the rolled "r"). So, my question would be: are there any (preferably free) english courses available on the net that use FSI-style drills and exercises? Thank you for your help! |

The course here:
www.freeenglishnow.com is the closest thing I've come across. It is free, but uses passages from the bible instead of the more usual dialogs. & I don't think the grammar drills are as exhaustive as they might be in an FSI course. If you try it, it'd be good to hear what you make of it. There are also "Spoken English" courses in the "Spoken" series - but these are expensive and 60 years old... |
