Recommendation:

There are over 100 readers on the site. The accent and clarity of their words varies and provides a realistic audio learning experience. The pieces of prose, poetry, stories and nonfiction enhance the more practical, standardized content of English language learning.

Description:

At Repeat After Us, find volunteer created audio recordings to accompany text of a variety of genres from nursery rhymes to nonfiction. The site is searchable by date, author and genre. From the website: "Created by a high school student, RepeatAfterUs is an award-winning online library with the best collection of copyright-free English texts and scripted recordings. Our free audio clips provide an excellent resource for students and literature lovers of all ages."

Students can work at their own pace through the levels and genres provided. Through the 'How to Help' page, students can volunteer their time to contribute a recording to the site. Older students can model a community service project site on Repeat After Us.
