practising oral English
 
Hello,
do you know a good website to practise spoken English?
To make myself clearer, I �ve asked my students to write dialogues and I �d like them to practise before acting them out in front of the class.
I remember coming across a website in which you could enter whole sentences, choose a type of English (British, American, male or female speaker) and the computer would read the sentence out loud. Obviously, it �s not perfect but it �s better than nothing.
Do you knwo this website or anything similar?
Thanks for your help,
Stephanie

Hi Stephanie,
I often use �howjsay.com � with my students. But it only helps them pronouce words ....
the other one is �acapela � for sentences.
Have a nice day!

I think this is the website you mean: http://www.oddcast.com/home/demos/tts/tts_example.php
It �s not perfect, but it is useful.

Have a nice day!
