I found this talk quite
interesting and since I don’t have enough time to write something for the blog at the moment,
I will just share it with you all.
Judy Thompson, B.A., TESL
Certification, professor, author and speaker is an expert in spoken English. A
student herself of French and German, Judy knows firsthand the frustrations of
learning to speak a new language. Judy lived and taught in South Korea and it
was there that she had the first of many revelations about spoken English and
how it should be taught.
Newcomers are embarrassed
about their accents and grammar mistakes and native speakers
are unaware that the way they speak makes it extremely difficult for non-native
speakers to understand them.
Judy leads language classes
for both native and non-native speakers to foster understanding and effective
communication in our diverse community.
A long time resident of
Caledon, Ontario, Judy has four children and lives with her husband Richard on
a beautiful ten-acre hobby farm. She is an environmental activist who enjoys
hiking and skiing. In her spare time, she raises champion hunter show ponies.
I hope you have enjoyed as
much as I have.
See you around!
