The focus of this CD is for you to listen to actual conversations. Then you can read a summary of the discussion (and some of the CDs are typed word-for-word so you can do a dictation, if you want to ... Then you can check your spelling. |
| Our Philosophy We are all students. We are all course members. There are facilitators and course members. (It's hard to call a 45-year-old executive who has major responsibilities a "student." He's a "course member.") There are "seminar participants." |

If you want to give a copy of this CD to your friends or a teacher at a school, please send an email to talkinternational@yahoo.com -- we want to distribute free CDs to schools in Asia and South America. Schools in Europe need to pay more (to help pay for the seminars that Cary will give in South America and Asia – to teach teachers how to teach!). 8. HOW TO INSTALL QUICKTIME – click on the icon that says “quicktimeinstaller” then follow the instructions. You must ACCEPT the agreement of the program. If you have any questions, contact us at talkinternational@yahoo.com This effort of “teachers to teachers” will help share the teaching methods that are used in Europe and USA. The method started in 1965 and over 30,000 teachers have learned how to teach the “CELTA” -- Certificate of English Language Teaching for Adults. Some of these teachers are teaching in South America, Asia and Africa, but not enough. That’s why Cary and Steve are working hard to create this set of CDs and we hope you will help us with the effort. We know there are good teachers in South America, Asia and Africa, but they need a better technique. Cary will give some good workshops in South America, we hope, soon…. And then he can take the seminars to Asia and Africa. We plan to raise the money by charging teachers in USA and Europe more for the Cds. When they pay, they are helping teachers in Africa learn! |

Elcome” or “S. McCrea” Bye! All the best, Cary and Steve www.teacherstoteachers.com talkinternational@yahoo.com We are two teachers who also own part of TALK School. However, this project is independent from TALK because the quality of the videos is very rough…it is between teachers and between friends, not quite up to the standard of a TALK product (yet). We hope you will give us suggestions for improving this product! |
