ruhappy asked: I want to teach my boyfriend English a little more formally. He speaks Spanish, and understands almost all of what I say in English. He claims, however, not to understand pronunciation and some verb rules (especially past tense). How to you start teaching phonics and where do you go from there?

mikayla asked: I’ve been asked by someone I work with to help them prepare for a verbal exam on medicine. My native language is English, and I have quite a firm grasp on grammar and pronunciation. However I did not major in English in college, and the only teaching experience I have has to do with volunteering in high school. I have never tutored before, and don’t feel comfortable assigning a rate, but the coworker has insisted.
Any suggestions?

Enlightenme! asked: I am looking for a good interactive site for learning ESL for students in the 8 to 12 age group.
I am looking for a site that offers games, exercises, and also evaluates students through exams. Good interactive games are a plus.
Also I am looking for a site that covers the entire gamut from Grammar, Conversation to pronunciation. Thanks.
