Greetings!
I am just back from vacation and have already hit the road for a new adventure. I recently accepted a position working for the government where I will be teaching English to some Saudi nationals. I have just started getting set up to teach, but I will hopefully have some exciting and interesting anecdotes to share. I have dealt with students of all types, yet many of you know there are some special issues in dealing with students from the Middle East, especially male students. Hopefully, I can rely a bit on experience to mitigate any detractors before they develop. I will be teaching what is known as the American Language Course (ALC). It has been developed by the Defense Language Institute (DLI). I have had the pleasure of attending DLI twice and I am always impressed with their curriculum. I think this will be a great experience and perhaps I can share some tidbits with everyone out there.
