I've traveled to over 45 countries and I've almost three years in other countries.  What can we learn from each other?

I've developed a pronunciation system called "It Sounds Like" and I hope people will avoid using IPA (backwards C, a+e, upside-down V).  Let's talk!   Write to freeEnglishLessons@gmail.com.   My Orkut and Facebook accounts are both linked to FreeEnglishLessons@gmail.com.

I
am a teacher in a school in Fort Lauderdale. 

I have written some articles for Teacher Training -- look for them here.
http://www.VisualAndActive.com is my training website:  YES, you can hire my colleagues and we can prepare an EXCELLENT long-term training program for teachers.

Here is an example of why I am a teacher on Orkut and Facebook (and other social networks)

Bravo!   You can find me on "FreeEnglish Lessons" on Orkut and "Freenglishlessons@gmail.com on Facebook.
I will connect you to my students and then you can practice with students and get free lessons from them, too!



Do you see the ease of using social networks to encourage students to write to each other?   It's REAL homework, and REAL information is transmitted.
