Guidelines to Make a Website review

Name of site : Super ESL / TESOL
Description :
This website is design by Jim Becker , the Professor Emeritus University of Northern Iowa , America . It is very useful for students and teachers of ESL , ESOL , TEFL , TESOL , others as it contains many links from other websites that are related to English . Besides , it also consists of tests which able to help us in determining our level of English .
Content summary :
Overall , the content of the website can be considered as very useful and effective to help users to improve their English level .

Site Review
Content Validity :

The contents in this website is very accurate and reliable as it used a simple English language structure that could be understand by all users that come from different countries .
Currency :

The website is always updated in order to make sure that the users are always be aware and keep them updated of any changes in English language or if there is any demand from the users themselves .
Presentation :

The presentation of the website is too messy and not organized . Next , the webmaster had a bad choices of colours and he used unsuitable font type and size which is less user friendly . It is such an irritating to read those small size of font on the webpage . Plus , there are no graphics and sound that could possibly attract people to use the website to learn or do research on this website . Last but not least , the ancient Egypt background of the page looked dull and it is actually would be more suitable for the website of history subject .
Functionality :
All links are working perfectly as there were no broken links and also it only takes a few second to launch the page . Other than that , it was a lot more easier as the users do not need to register or log in to use the website . However , too much scrolling in viewing the page was wasting time .
Other Comments :

We feel that this website has too many links that look unorganized . The webmaster should specified the links to avoid distraction to users with all the glittery words . Instead of scrolling too much he should replaced it with tabs which made it easier for users to search what they need . The webmaster should provide much more interactive and imaginative exercises and games instead of having subjective and linear type of quizzes . It makes students especially easily lose their interest in exploring more games and quizzes . However , one good thing is the webmaster encourage interaction between him and the users by preparing a feedback section .
