I think I am going to sign up for the course and learn all their uber cool techniques. I am going to join a group of other teachers and audit the course just for fun. But I do expect to learn some cool info at

Wanna join me? Jump in and let’s have some fun improving our classes while giving our language students a fantastic new exeperience…doing something that they already enjoy doing…watching movies.
And hey…I think most lanugage teachers would enjoy teaching this kind of class as well. Toss out the textbook for a week or so and go with the flow. You may be surprised at how well your students do in the classroom.
