Internet: BBC launches Internet soap opera for English language learners

The BBC World Service is to launch an online soap opera aimed at English language learners around the world. From Monday 1 August, The Flatmates features a multi-cultural cast of young people who not only share a flat but also their everyday adventures 'studying, working, living and loving' in the UK.

The writer and producer of the series, Nuala O'Sullivan, made a comment that all trainers should keep in mind. 'We also know from experience that participation in learning helps make it fun and the more people participate, the more effective the learning".
