Alex asked: I am supposed to think of the best way to explain the word occasionally to a class of ESL students, but I honestly am stumped. Would I use a picture? Mime it? Realia?
Thanks

the_commish999 asked: There are a ton of them out there. Some you can trust and do a good job. Some are primo bullshit artists who will bait-and-switch you and scam your ass the whole way. I’m currently working with 3 recruiters (Footprints, ESLStarter, ASK Now). I dropped two other recruiters (TeachKoreaNZ and ESL Planet) because they work exclusively with public schools.
Are there any other reputable ones out there to work with? If so, what are they?

Kate asked: I’m trying to find information about teaching overseas during the summer. I thought Dave’s would be a good place, but I can’t seem to get permission to join because I am only interested in summer work and would prefer not to get a TESOL, (I am already multiply licensed). Apparently, Dave doesn’t want people like me on his forum!
Does anyone know of an alternative to Dave’s ESL cafe that would contain a discussion forum?

Who stole my Waffles? asked: It’s a career I’m interested in, but many of the colleges I’m interested in do not have an ESL Education major. Would it be possible to major in regular education first, then get ESL certification? Are there any other options?

joe kotulak asked: In other words what I mean is the Learning Materials that you provide ESL high school students and NOT the actual learning activities. So what I would like to know is what can you do with the learning materials for an ESL high school student in a case where independent readings contain concepts with multiple step processes which can be difficult and written assignments are difficult without considerable instructional support?
