I came across your blog while researching the ELT space, and wanted to let you know about a product I’m working on called Newsmart, a platform to help users improve their Business English. It combines news content from The Wall Street Journal, language-learning exercises and gamification (badges, points and a leaderboard).
Everyday, 6 articles about business, finance, technology and workplace culture are published in either text or video form with exercises, tips and feedback included. Because the content is updated every day, it makes learning less boring and more of a habit, like reading the news.
It’s not for beginners, it’s for those wanting to reach the higher levels of proficiency in English and learn about the key issues of business at the same time. With your background and clear passion for ELT it would be brilliant to get your feedback.
If you have any questions, suggestions, or anything else feel free to shoot me an email!
