EVALUATION FOR WEBSITE

Hello,
I visited some websites but I concentrated my evaluation on one website is www.usingenglish.com .It was website deals with some brats of English language and provides language collection of English as a second language and contains a good scientific material . I think it is useful for researchers.
In general, it contains English reference which most important in this part (English idiom, phrasal verbs, irregular verbs grammar glossary .The other parts, teacher resources, tests & quizzes, forum, articles, tool & resources). it is good and useful .There a big number of parts of speech and idiom which arranged alphabetically and quizzes after every lesson for different levels from beginner to advance, and online dictionary can be loaded.
About the phrasal verb gives only definition or equivalent word without example. About multimedia there is no multimedia and this is disadvantage, the font is ok, but the color there is no attractive colors , it is quite and simple, may be because this web is scientific and not like the others which are funny and entertainment.
