Teaching English to foreigners
11 Answers
I have been asked to help a friend of my husband by teaching him English (he is from Lithuania). He has been attending classes at the local college but has found them to be difficult to understand as the teacher is from Pakistan and has a very strong accent. His current level of English is pretty basic and I am wondering if there are any recourses available on line that I could use to help him. Thanks in anticipation.

Have a look at this site - it won't help his spoken English, but will help him in lots of ways - good fun, too.
It's worth exploring the entire site; I know adult students who are fascinated by it.
