EAL CBC Manitoba

EAL CBC Manitoba is an excellent self-study English learning website. It is produced by the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) affiliate in Manitoba (http://www.travelmanitoba.com/). Posts are added on a weekly basis.

I suggest you try lesson 72 which is entitled "Living in a Fast Speaking World"; it gives advice about how to improve one's listening skills. Here's the link to make it easier for you to try it out:

You'll find the link for EAL CBC Manitoba on the right-hand side of the blog under the title Listening and Reading links.
