Interested in ESL?
We recently found out that 22frames.com is becoming a popular site for learning
English as a second language (ESL). It turns out that watching captioned videos
provides a way to not only learn formal English but also idioms and other cultural
concepts. To find videos, you can browse through categories or make caption-only
video searches on your interests. We are also building some unique features that
are based on ideas developed by
Flesch-Kincaid.
