Now that I am finished my MA TESOL program, I need to decide what direction I want to go with this website. After some reflection, I am going to attempt to make this blog a blog dedicated to the “Art of Teaching English as a Second/ Foreign Language“.
Right now I have no idea what that will look like. I welcome your comments, questions and insights. If you e-mail me, rather than commenting on the website I will be able to respond quicker.

I know that I have been rejecting the maintenance of this site but I released a new site where I am focusing most of my energies at this current time. Please check it out at www.skippclass.com
I will still be periodically updating this website but at current time am very busy with my Masters studies and work. I hope that you all understand.

I really enjoy various cultures and how they relate to teaching. I really believe that part of effective English teaching is relating to the culture that your teaching in and bring some of your own culture into the classroom.
Recently I was cruising YouTube and found a great video series on Chinese culture. The videos series are called Sexy Beijing and are put out by a lady identified as Danwei. I have included a sample video here in which she addresses the issue of Chinese people having English names. I highly recommend her videos.
Talking about culture I have included a video of my favourite Thai band called Silly Fools. I really like their music. I hope you enjoy. The is called Num Lai

I ran across this video a couple of days ago and just thought it has to be shared. Imagine having these guys in your class. There would never a dull moment but maybe some behavioural issues. This video inspired me to maybe have a lipsync activity with my students. I hope you enjoy this video as much as I do and think creative thoughts while watching.
