Hello Friends and Colleagues:

 

Happy Spring! By the time you read this, we hope warmer and drier weather has arrived. Remember, April showers bring May flowers! At least it isn't snow!

 

We had a fruitful trip to Portland for TESOL 2014. Our panel discussion was well attended and we exchanged many strategies for pronunciation training with our colleagues. We are seeing increased collaboration between ESOL and the Speech-Language (SLP) community which we have always advocated.

 

We met several professionals who are already incorporating our RULES materials into their corporate and academic programs with great success. Jennifer Voss of Corporate ESL Training is one of them!

 

 

We met Mary Oluyemisi from Nigeria who was excited to discover our RULES Teacher's Package.  

 

Is it Marionberry or Marion Barry?
 
As we said, we had a fruitful trip to TESOL! Check out this blog about confusion between compound nouns and proper nouns. Please add some of your own experiences. We'd love to hear from you. 
 
English is Crazy

Many of you may be familiar with this poem. Here is a great video version that will give your students comfort that English spelling and pronunciation is quite inconsistent.
