This poster session will introduce videos found at youtube.com/InterestingThingsESL that students can use to practice intonation, rhythm and pronunciation. This site features various video series such as the 465 videos covering over 20,000 sentences using the wildcard name "Tom," a series of 48 videos covering over 2,900 sentences starting with "I don't," a series of 80 videos covering over 2,400 sentences beginning with "You're," and a series of videos focusing on /t/ & /b/ linking in sentences. There is also a series of videos with sentences using the language name wildcard "French," some videos for listening to and repeating irregular verbs, and several other series.

Many of these videos use sentences from the Tatoeba Corpus (tatoeba.org), which is a multilingual corpus of sentences in many languages and their translations. It is possible for students to find translations for many of the sentences in these videos. They can also volunteer to add translations in their native language for sentences that do not yet have translations.
