    We have been discussing ESL classes and how teachers are not prepared for classrooms with students who do not speak any english. This blog gives advice and helpful resources for teachers.

    This is a blog that gives new updates in grammar, defining rhetorical devices, dictionaries and the like. It's a good place to look if you have a random question about grammar or what is happening in the English language today.

Sex Ed - 0 views

  •  
    South Park is edgy and controversial as usual, and although this isn't strictly English related, I think it really helps point out how we take education. Too often we push things too far or not enough. Sex Ed is important but how important is always a pertinent question as with the debate between any curriculum.
