Recursos

Esta página reúne una selección de recursos fiables para practicar inglés fuera del aula. Utilízalos según tu nivel, tus intereses y tus objetivos de aprendizaje. El inglés británico es nuestra variedad de referencia principal, aunque también encontrarás una selección de recursos de otras variedades y contextos del mundo anglófono.

Consejo: intenta dedicar entre 20 y 30 minutos al día al contacto con el inglés. Escucha, lee, escribe o habla un poco cada día. No es necesario utilizar todos los recursos: elige algunos que se adapten a ti y úsalos con regularidad como complemento a tus clases.
