English Dictionary that school students can have fun using
 
Greetings from a new member to all at this wonderful community!

While I �m not a teacher, I joined this forum because we develop and publish free online tools which can be of some use to English teachers and students.

One such tool we �ve recently brought online is an English to English dictionary (~150,000 headwords), with a unique, Web 2.0 style user interface.

We got about 100 people (in different age groups) to try it and we found that school students were the most enthusiastic about it. By extension, a few English language school teachers also found it to be a useful and productive tool for students.

I invite all here to try it and request your feedback / suggestions to help us improve the tool, especially for English language school students and teachers:

http://www.RapiDefs.com

I look forward to receiving constructive input from the members of this community for which I thank you in advance.

Would you mind if I put a link in my blog ?
