Computer game that improves English: Call of Duty

-




  • People use several ways to learn English.
  • Most people take advantage of technologies instead of taking a course to learn English. 
  • Having to watch videos, reading English newspapers and practicing communicating can be offered as an example.
But there is one activity that most people don't believe in but is really useful. This activity is to improve English by playing computer games. You're going to say, how is that possible? It may sound strange at first look, but it really works.

Call of duty is a war-themed game that describes the bravery of soldiers in the Second World War. Apart from fictitious characters, the troops who actually fought in the war are also visible in the game. Since there are many military phrases and historical notions in the game, it might be hard for you to understand the conversations in the game. That's why you both develop your English and learn about events in history by investigating these concepts.

    Video games really help for English learning and I think you agree with me that point. Good post!

First of all, I would like to mention that this method is very different from other methods and innovative. The tools used and the classroom atmosphere, in particular, is very significant and I like this. What most catches my attention are the students ' new name and personality. Students will participate in classes with courage through this process.  They don't hesitate to raise a finger or answer a question because they don't reveal their true identities and can express their thoughts openly in their minds. Students have difficulty with this problem from my experiences because they are afraid to describe it. I care about it as a prospective future teacher. On the other hand, the visual communication abilities of the students are enhanced thanks to the posters prepared and the color of the classroom catches the students ' attention. Colorful stuff catches most people's attention, so it's a good way to use them to teach. Sometimes, reading an ar...

An application that can improve the vocabulary of the teacher's class: Knoword

As a future teacher candidate, I will try to teach English to my students with useful activities. But for that, I think I need to integrate technology into my classes. So I would like to introduce you to this extremely useful application. Its name is Knoword. Knoword is a tool for users to discover and broaden their language skills and spelling skills. It's a game where you type words by default. There have been three degrees of difficulties from which to choose. (Easy, moderate and hard.) Users are originally given the concept and the first letter of the phrase. Users were told to suggest a term for it. Points are earned when the term is correctly predicted. When you don't remember, you could miss the word (through the ESC or skip key), when you add another second until you hit 5 consecutively, you might see a screen with different letters indicating the next letter of your word. There is, on the other side, a portal that is beneficial for me. You might bu...

My Tandem App Experience

I was searching for a leisure activity for myself last summer. Because I was so worried about sitting idle at home and I wanted to improve my English skills. I didn't think my English speaking skills were good enough, in particular, so I wanted to do some research to address this issue. First of all, without subtitles, I began watching films and tried to understand the conversations in the film. I'd say this practice strengthened my speaking abilities, but I was tired of watching movies after a while.  While searching for the app store, an app grabbed my attention. This application's name was tandem, enabling language change. For example, you chat with people with that language when you select the targeted language, and the other person learns your mother tongue. I have tried several language learning applications, but none of them have a technical and decent setting like Tandem. Every day I had the opportunity to experience different words a...
