Does anybody know of a good video about English traditions and culture to introduce my students into these topics?
And, by the way, do you know of any good sites for listening comprehension for students aged 12 -16?
Thanks a lot in advance.

I really like this series of eight short videos. And it is subtitled.

On the subject of listening comprehension - Is there any way that we could up load sound files? I have found several great worksheets for listening exercises, but often the link to the file is broken or the person never replies to the pm to get the file.

If the text is there I will read it myself, but it is important for pupils to hear a variety of accents not just my very British accent.

I would be happy to make sound files and load them up if it was possible, as I am sure many of us would!
