Authentic Reading Practice
- Wikipedia (Simple English) - Special version of Wikipedia using simpler sentences. Mie Prefecture even has an article!

Utilities
- Presentation maker - Like PowerPoint but free and entirely online.
- Crosword puzzle maker - Automated crossword puzzle maker, saves you a lot of time.
- YouTube -> MP3 converter - Take any YouTube video and produce an mp3 of the audio.
Non-free Sites
- Genki English - The ideas are free, but the materials are not.
