Hopefully some useful commentary on teaching English to (mainly) French speakers. I am a teacher based in Paris, France with fourteen years experience (most times that’s not 1 year repeated 14 times :/).
I teach engineering students at university level so naturally posts will have this bias. However I do also teach business English to adults as well as exam preparation for the TOEIC.
Don’t be shy to comment, even if it is to just say hi! Or hook up on Twitter @muranava.
Hello Mura,
I’ve enjoyed reading your blog and subscribed via rss feed. I have deleted my Google + account for privacy reasons. Is there some other way to get your postings? (My twitter account isn’t working.)
hi chris
thanks for your interest and for reminding me to add an email follow button which you’ll find in the sidebar 🙂

Hi Mura,
I was directed to your blog by Geoff Jordan, he was my MA tutor and he said you know a lot about corpora/concordancers. If you don’t mind, could I contact you by email to ask you a few questions?
Thanks a lot,
Scott
Hi Scott
Sure happy to help if I can, Geoff has my email or you can direct message me if you use twitter, or perhaps G+ Corpus Linguistics community – https://plus.google.com/communities/101266284417587206243?

Hi,
I came across your website through IATEFL Glasgow and I’m exploring it right now. Quite recently I’ve started sharing my worksheets based on TED talks. Check it out if you are interested and I would grateful if you could get back to me if you have some comments about it.
The website address is: ted4esl.com
Hi Stanislawsaluda
Thanks for letting me know about your site, had a quick look, I like it 😀. Are you going to Glasgow?
Cool! I’m not planning on going to Glasgow but I will watch some of the online videos that they publish.
Dear Mura Nava,
I am a Ph.D. student, and I was hoping to get some corpus related advice. Could you please share your email address so that I can send you my query?
