It makes the instruction on their terms and provides enthusiasm about solving a problem of their own creation. It is especial... Read more

Although my main career was in Information Technology, I kept up my interest in languages by teaching French, Italian, and ESL part-time for about 15 years at a Hartford-area international language school and by traveling to France and Italy. I taught French, Italian a... Read more
