Intermediate to advanced learners of Cantonese can benefit greatly from reading the news.

In addition, videos are available of the latest news, which is a nice way to practice listening comprehension.

From Website

RFA adheres to the highest standards of journalism and strives for accuracy, balance, and fairness in its editorial content. In addition to its news programming, RFA strives to be a “university of the air" and broadcasts works of literature and nonfiction that have been banned in RFA’s target countries.

As a “surrogate” broadcaster, RFA provides news and commentary specific to each of its target countries. RFA broadcasts only in local languages and dialects, and most of its broadcasts include news of specific local interest.

RFA can be heard in Mandarin, Cantonese, Uyghur, and the Wu dialect; Tibetan (Uke, Amdo, and Kham); Burmese; Khmer to Cambodia; Korean to North Korea; Lao; and Vietnamese. Each language service is made up of primarily of native language speakers. This distinctive programming reflects each of these unique cultures.

Sheik.co.uk Cantonese Resources

Summary

Lots of information here for study and review of the Cantonese language. You can print out lots of lesson plans, as well as other materials. Also really cool are the flashcard on the site.

From Website

This site contains over 200 pages of print friendly Chinese reference sheets, tests, revision aids and a unique Chinese dictionary. It is aimed to help you speak, read and write Hong Kong Chinese. As such, the pronunciation given is not Mandarin 'pinyin' or 'Putonghua', it is Cantonese 'LSHK' or 'jyutping'. Having said that, many of the sheets, flashcards and tests will also help you learn Mandarin, as Chinese writing is the same in both Mandarin and Cantonese.

This website's main purpose is to provide revision aids in order to learn Chinese. Many of the notes have been designed to be printed out for use away from the computer. These notes will complement a formal course in Cantonese, whether from books, tapes or tuition. It is also my hope that teachers will find some of the print-outs useful for lesson plans.
