Understanding English Speech

It is for improve your understanding of English people’s speech. If you would like to understand english speeches better, this learning material is made for you! I tried it and it is really usable to improve your understanding (you can hear the speaker’s voice and you have to type it and the computer checks if your typing is correct or not) and prononcuation (using a microphone you can compare your voice with the original speaker’s).
