    Hello!

    My resources aren't in Internet, but I know a page which you can translate some songs; it's http://www.metrolyrics.com/

    Other resources are watching films in original version, but with subtitles! But,if you pay attention, you can understand the most of dialogue!

    I hope these resources are useful for you!

    I've read a few poems on this website: www.plagiarist.com; it may be a language with too many metaphors but also fun.
    To practice listening I like to hear some news and shows in NPR Program Stream, on this website: www.npr.org. But normaly at the end I just listen a while and then is a nice background sound.

    To practice my English, in Christmas my family give me Harry Potter first book in English. Slowly I´m reading and underlining words I don´t know, to search in dictionary for. I think is very interesting read different texts to recognize popular expressions.

    I don’t have much more resources, in fact, I usually practise my english with homeworks to improve my grammar, listening to radio (bbc) to improve my listening and reading articles from guardian to improve my vocabulary. However I know two links which could interest you:

    http://www.aulafacil.com/Ingleslectura/Lecciones/Temario.htm

    - with this one you can read something about daily topics and, also, you can listen it in english and read translated

    http://www.aulafacil.com/CursoIngles/IndexEjercicios.htm

    - in this you can find some exercises about some grammar topics

    I recommend you "WordReference", here you can find the meaning of the words and many examples.

    Sometimes I watch songs on Youtube, with subtitles in english which is a better idea to read and listen.

    "Skynews and Extr@ " (you can find it on youtube) are excellente programs because you can understand and follow the dialogues and enjoy them.
