Stephen Krashen is the unquestioned guru of second language acquisition. He has published over 480 books and articles and given countless lectures over his long career. However, much of what he says is controversial. The moderator of this session will present video & audio clips, along with short written descriptions, of Dr. Krashen's ideas. Participants will offer their critiques of whether these ideas are usable in both online and in-person classrooms.
I have taught English for twelve years for LAUSD and owned my own school specializing in conversational English for eight years. I spend eight hours a day, seven days a week, on ESL-related projects.
