BBC news articles

I must admit, I am addicted to reading the news. I check BBC news on my phone at least 3 to 4 times a day and probably read 20 to 30 articles daily. I don’t really like reading novels or books in general but I just can’t resist news articles.

For students, news articles in English can be a great way to learn about what is happening in the world, and at the same time studying the English language. You may hear or watch the same news in your own language and then see it in English- reinforcing the information that you already are conscious of.

On this page I will be periodically adding links for interesting articles to read. These are articles that I have read and think could be interesting material for Escuela Oficial topics or have interesting vocabulary or expressions.
