The first one was so egregiously horrible - I can?t imagine talking to any learner quite like that. I wonder how it is that he?s teaching something relatively simple like modal auxiliary verbs, which the students may not be familiar with - even though the language that he uses to deliver the lesson is way more complex. Like in Chinese, I know how to say can/can?t (and there are several different words for this), but I wouldn?t have the vocabulary to understand a...  [Read more]
