See my teacher profile for more complete information.
none needed
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
I may occasionally show a short video that illustrates the communicative situation or skill.
Content chosen based on 30+ years in the fields of linguistics, education, special education, and speech-language pathology. Learners are also invited to ask me to cover particular topics that confuse them in regards to social interaction, language, and communication.

I am more than happy to take suggestions - because this class is grounded in real-world situations and how we communicate with each other.
