Discover Open Culture



Today’s learners have become so tech-savvy that to catch up with them and maintain their interest, teachers have to be a couple of steps ahead. It is mind-boggling how in the age of Facebook and Twitter, there are still many great websites out there just waiting to be discovered. 
Open Culture is such a discovery.


At Open Culture you will not only find Loyal Books shares but also free audio-books from titles in the public domain classics - but also stories by James Baldwin, Ray Bradbury, etc.  Enjoy and Virginia Woolf. Or poetry by Maya Angelou and Charles Bukowski.

What’s more?
Get 1,300 free online courses from the world's leading universities: Stanford, Yale, MIT, Harvard, Berkeley, Oxford and more.  You can download the audio & video courses (often from iTunes, YouTube, or university web sites).  Use the share button to tell your computer or mp3 player friends.  Over 45,000 hours of free audio & video lectures, await you now.


Many IELTS candidates struggle to get ideas for IELTS Writing task 2 or IELTS Speaking, so Open Culture can help them with that. The Ideas & Culture part http://www.openculture.com/2006/11/arts_culture_po.html will be especially useful.

Open Culture is a great compilation of excellent resources, which can be used for personal and professional development.  It has six main sections: Audiobooks, Online courses, Movies, Language lessons, e-Books, and Textbooks. Check it out!
