Want to volunteer and teach English as a Second Language? I started Classrooms Without Walls to provide ESL lessons to anyone who wants to learn English free of charge.

For example, my students have problems pronouncing $123.19 and $123.90. Nineteen and ninety sound similar, especially with an accent.

I have a bit of an entrepreneurial streak in me.I initially set the price at $5.00 for a 30 min. ...

I started reading Three Cups of Tea. As expected, its a good read!The first thing that comes to mind as I read this book (and that came to mind when I read Leaving Microsoft to Change the World) is how little is necessary to live.  It makes you think about what is really important in life, to really understand the difference between things ...

I teach English as a Second Language online in addition to my regular classroom. I use Skype for voice communication and use a virtual office to display what is on my computer desktop. For example, I can display a PowerPoint presentation, talk, and control the slides. The students see what I am doing on my machine on their machines. This is ...

They are great students; they are all eager to learn.I manage a technology startup during the day. My technology background has helped me as a teacher. If ...
