I've traveled to over 45 countries and I've almost three years in other countries.  What can we learn from each other?

I've developed a pronunciation system called "It Sounds Like" and I hope people will avoid using IPA (backwards C, a+e, upside-down V).  Let's talk!   Write to freeEnglishLessons@gmail.com.   My Orkut and Facebook accounts are both linked to FreeEnglishLessons@gmail.com.

I
am a teacher in a school in Fort Lauderdale. 

I have written some articles for Teacher Training -- look for them here.

CORRECTED SPELLING

Today I will give you some of most famous websites in China.  Almost everybody in China likes them and uses them veryday. So I think if you want to get to know China, maybe these websites are very important.
I will tell you  the website Chinese name and character and tell you how to pronounce the Chinese word.   I will use the spelling-pronunciation system to describe each word.
 
1           百度baidu 【bedoo】 www.baidu.com(famous for its search ability)  Tthis website is quite like www.google.com  i use it every day.  Most Chinese people like www.baidu.com because it is in Chinese line of  customary,and today baidu is not only good at searching, but it also has a website like www.ebay.com.  If you want to learn something about China, the first step is to study how to use baidu  www.baidu.com )
2           网易 wangyi【wongyee】 www.163.com (one of the 4 biggest websites in China).  Some times I like call it 163 -- just the three numbers.   I like it very much and  I also use it everyday. Many people in China like it  -- wangyi has a good email service, but it also has some channels like sports, women, news,  bbs,  in fact it has so many channels that it is complicated.
3           新浪 xinlang 【thinlong】www.sina.com (another one of the 4 biggest websites in China).   It is famous for its quick delivery of news.  I like to see the news on www.163.com, but many people prefer to watch www.sina.com -- it is also a complex site with many channels.
4           搜狐 sohu 【sohhoo】www.sohu.com (one of the 4 biggest websites like 网易 新浪 搜狐).   I remember when I was a student in university, I often went to www.sohu.com.  I like its CEO.   I have forgetten my email account on sohu.com.
5           雅虎 yahoo 【yahoo】www.yahoo.cn (notice that the domain name ends with  .cn,  but not .com).  You must have heard that the yahoo china website has been purchased by the Chinese government.   It is one of the 4 biggest websites Yahoo has been changed a lot.  Now it is just a search engine.  During my time at school, I liked yahoo because it was simple, easy and quick.  I could use it quickly.  I am glad to see the .cn has come back.  I hope it can be PK 百度 google (come on!).
6          Ok, I have told you about the biggest Chinese search websites.  So what is the next colorful website?  The 6th site that  I want to introduce is a C2C (customer to customer) website called 淘宝 taobao 【tawbaw】www.taobao.com -- yes, almost everybody knows about this website.   It is quite like ebay.com.  if you want buy something, maybe you can just try it.  If you can't use it, maybe I can help you.
