Hello Wiki Malahani Team!

On this blog, you'll find some of the training materials we have, ranging from pronunciation to grammar to culture.  Hopefully you'll find this a helpful site for your continuous learning of the English language, most especially in the Australian context. 

Because this is a work progress, I'd love to have your feedback on how to make it more relevant to your needs; we can customise this to your hearts' content :). 

Warmest Regards,

Cathy
