Every month we feature our favorite web tools and apps for English language learners and teachers. This month we are highlighting Visme. Visme is a web tool for creating stunning presentations, infographics and other visual content in minutes. Visme is great for student presentations, especially for university students and Business English students. Below are a list of Visme‘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.
