Additional Comments

  • The ESL Café is an excellent source of information, quotes, idioms and ideas for teachers and learners of ESL/EFL. It would be useful for individual study and for language practice through ‘Chat’ and ‘Discussion forums’. However it is limited in terms of other authentic, interactive activities for learners.
