A good English language course anyone?
I'm thinking of teaching English as a foreign language while living here in Switzerland. I would like to know if anyone here could give me the name of any good books that I could use. I would like a course that has teachers notes (this is the first time I have done this) plus a students workbook that I would be able to photocopy. I have heard such things exist but have yet to find one. I would rather be recommended a course that someone has actually had success with, as a teacher or student, than buy one 'off the shelf' that isn't any good. Thank you.

That's 'assume', I presume.

We've all done it. One manifestation of Skitt's Law is that it's always easier to find typos in other people's posts and almost impossible to find them in one's own. A spell checker is an absolute necessity for me, but unfortunately it doesn't correct thinkos.

[nq:1]Using a spell checker cracks my ability to spell words correctly in the absence of a spell checker, such as when I am attempting an examination paper, and that isn't good, at all. I haven't used it, therefore, for over an year.[/nq]
That's supposed to be "a year", I assume.

[nq:1]It's a fair point for ESL people, but I see spell checkers in exactly the same way as I see ... be used wherever they make things easier. I suppose that once upon a time, logarithmic tables were frowned on inexams.[/nq]
But are people becoming short term 'information' consumers and ignoring any long term ability to produce - like giving a starving angler a fish rather than a fishing rod?
