WHAT'S NEW?
Viv has completed the latest version of his comprehensive set of online English usage learning resources and tests. The full version will involve a small payment for lifetime access and updates. The first version of this project available here includes free access to a reduced format for the package, with each test of no more than 20 questions. Within a short period of time, access to the full version (over 1,700 questions with extensive help materials), with lifetime updates, will incur a small fee. There will be versions for Portuguese speakers and those of other languages at upper-intermediate level and above. More to follow later.
Did you know that Viv has developed a comprehensive introduction to teaching English as a private teacher? You can find his tips on starting out on this exciting profession here.
