Oh wow! Thanks for all of the kind comments. If you’d like to join us in Prague at The Language House check our site for more info www.thelanguagehouse.net

When I started teaching, I found that once I began to analyse the language more deeply, such as understanding what "be" actually means and when... Then there was a whole universe of material and perspectives to explore with the students! From the macro levels down to the micro-levels, through to figuring out how to graphically depict grammar (as a tool to represent situations accurately, rather than it being just a mindless set of parroted rules), and so much more. My point is, teachers can get out of tricky situations by figuring out, in depth, when not in the classroom. what it actually "is" that they are actually teaching about, using words. Seeing a student understand that "big" actually means "using a lot of space", and "bigger" means "using more space", and then "the biggest" means "using the most space", instead of just parroting the words "big", "bigger", "the biggest" - is extremely gratifying. *_What do English words actually refer to?_* It's a big question that is not answered by simply parroting dictionaries. It is a thought exercise that enriches the teacher's own understanding and philosophy, quite profoundly. And one that leads to a myriad of options of ideas, and activities, when inexperienced teachers get stuck.

Thank you Chris, greetings from Indonesia.

Hi Chris! I teach ESL in Brazil. My classes are all online with only one student at a time. Private English lessons for adults. I've been an ESL teacher for 7 years, and been doing my thing online for three. Do you have any resources on that? I'd love to improve. I'd love to pay for some feedback on my classes. They work fine, but I know there is room to improve.

Great..

Please give me some more context to the students and what’s happening.

Hi Chris, why is it that you invite us to join classes but don't reply emails. Do you have special email address different from the one on your website?
