SECOND LIFE FOR TEENS

Do you want to learn English and visit the UK for free? Now you can, virtually. The British Council has created a learning zone for both group and independent learners in the Second Life virtual environment. Interactive LearnEnglish activities and quests based on UK culture are available for all Second Life residents registered as Teens.

What is Second Life?

It is a very big, three-dimensional virtual world that you can enter and explore through your computer. You can travel anywhere you like in the world, instantly! You can experience it now with this movie in YouTube.
