Your first couple of lessons should be fun and a way to formulate trust in the classroom. ESL students need a 'safe' place to practice English and make mistakes.

Just like grammar, phonology has also sets of rules to follow but just as also in grammar, these rules have always exemptions. ð?s w?z ? ?v?ri ??æl?n??? ?ju?n?t....  [Read more]
