Class about Audio
In my opinion, he is a very good teacher. He explained how to use the software named Audacity clearly which facilitate me to understand more about how Audacity works than before. Also the software is easy to download which I don't need to be concerned with the issue of how to download the voice wanted. I really wish he could teach us more if the time is allowed.

Opinion about CALL
I think CALL is a very good for students who speak English as a second language since students have a lot of opportunity to meet and talk with people around the world that they have chance to practice to enhance their English ability. Also, there are a lot of functions including giving them feedback.
