Online English learning opportunities are interesting and dynamic. If we use a blog or forum site it will be interactive and more enjoyable. Apart from useful websites providing vocabulary the internet provides us with a means for communicating with students and teachers of English located in other parts of the world. Social Media is emerging in various forms to bring the people together in as communities. We cannot find a person without phone in the world. Basically, students find it difficult and inconvenient to deliver, share and present their views in front of others.
