Onestopenglish is a teacher’s resource site published by Macmillan. While you can find free sample resources in every section of onestopenglish, you need a subscription to the Staff Room to access the full database of over 8,000 resources, including lesson plans, worksheets, audio, video and flashcards.
THE APP
Now you can also access the onestopenglish world via a free mobile app. The app includes:
• Quick access to the latest content published on onestopenglish, with weekly updates
• A collection of instantly usable activities, such as warmers, fillers, lead-ins
• A selection of articles on collocations, idioms, word grammar and phrasal verbs
• The latest news from the ELT blogosphere
• Teacher tools to easily record your class and time your activities
VERDICT
In view of the wealth of resources available on the website, the app comes as rather a disappointment. There are a few useful bits and pieces, but the app is really just a shop window for the web-based version. In fact, even if you have a paid subscription to onestopenglish, you won't be able to access any of the premium resources via the app, which seems like a missed opportunity.
