Voki – an effective tool for practicing listening and speaking

In the Internet era, to share teaching/learning resources has become a norm. There are so many free online resources there. The point is which ones are suitable for our students. In order to help learners of Chinese, we will regularly introduce good websites/resources/tools to them.

VOKI is an effective and excellent tool for improving listening and speaking skills of Chinese (it also works for many other languages). As long as you can type Chinese characters, which is an essential but easy skill for L2 learners to master, you can use VOKI to transfer the written texts into listening texts. Go to the website (See CHINESE TEACHING/LEARNING TOOLS AND RESOURCES in this page) and follow the instructions, then you can practice your listening and speaking anytime.
