#TESOL25 provided many #ELT presentations, several invigorating discussions, and many teaching tips. Yet I appreciated seeing old friends and meeting new friends the most. I had many #CompellingConversations too!

BTW, the #TESOL convention was a fun, gun-free gathering too! Ask more; know more!

We just had our first virtual faculty check in since the fires started.

It’s really, really bad. Whatever you are hearing about LA, it’s worse.

My heart goes out to our families and all families whose lives have suddenly been turned upside down. #LAfires

Great read.

AI failed me giving me incorrect answers for the sun and moon letters in Arabic. I still had to check with my Arabic teacher: ya see? It won’t replace anyone, yet. But it certainly is a great tool when my teacher is not available.
