Bio. True Story is a web site where you can read about famous people. Through original series, it uncovers the drama in people stories: everyday situations with a twist, centric crime stories and paranormal events.
The advantages of using this site is that it allows teachers to grab students' attention with extraordinary stories. It also provides a section called Bio. Classroom where you can find educational material designed to encourage the use of biography in the classroom. The disadvantage is that this kind of sources provide texts with complex or new vocabulary so more time would be needed. Additionaly, you might see only one tense, simple past, ignoring the rest of the tenses.
