Every month we feature our favorite web tools and apps for English language learners and teachers. This month we are highlighting the Think Bilingual! Learn by Doing free iPad app. This app works especially well for young language learners. Think Bilingual is like an adventure game. The language learner is challenged to navigate immersive real-life situations. Users help a family of aliens make their way on earth, cook in the kitchen, drive a car, and clean the house. Each situation enhances listening skills as users follow spoken commands. Below are a list of Think Bilingual‘s features to support the learning needs of language learners.
Each week we scour the internet to find great web tools and apps to share on our various social networks (@TESOL, @AmericanTESOL, and @ESLWebinars). Check out our past favorites here.
