I won't be there Thursday. I am going to Sacramento for two days for more teacher training that the state is giving. So don't come to school. We don't get any substitutes. Sorry!

Welcome to our Spring semester!

Welcome to our spring semester. I use this "blog" to help you study at home. The links to other ESL websites are very useful for practicing your listening, reading, grammar, and even speaking. Please use them. If you only study English during class time, you will not learn quickly.

Voice of America

Go to this link for todays lesson.

This is a good website with many activities linked to news articles with audio.

Hello wonderful students. We are meeting for lunch today at 12:00 in front of class. We will be going to Mimi's Cafe on Crenshaw, just north of PCH (Pacific Coast Highway). Hope to see you there! If you want a ride we have carpool possibilities.

Happy President's Day!

In celebration of George Washington and the Presidents of the United States we have Monday Feb.21st off. Please don't come to school. Well, you can come, but I won't be here. Have a good day off, and practice your English!

Welcome!

Welcome to the Winter Trimester!
Hello, this is a simple "blog" where I post information about the class. One of the most important uses of this blog is the "Links" section to the right. Please look at and use these links to practice your English. My first recommendation is www.elllo.org. A great site for listening, video and other activities and quizzes.
