English as a Second Language Classes

Posted: 01:21 PM ET

Lost objects

Sl and virtual worlds are increasing becoming centers for education and language. ESL school is the most popular training center for english language. There are both text and voice classes there. Initial classes. Initial classes are generally around conversations in a group, where there is a ESL teacher, whose work is to correct gramatical mistakes in converstaions. Nearly all teachers are RL language teachers, thus though the classes are in a virtual setting but the atmosphere is real. The company's slogan is when you want, when you can, when you need. Giovanni Tweak the owner feels that this the future of classroom in 10 years from now. ESl SL (183, 54, 97) Ash! Sl ireport

I think this is the actually the state of some classrooms already ,there are many schools from RL and new schools popping up in SL too. A friend just opened a Spanish language school on SL.. I think ill go b4 my next trip to a Spanish speaking country . Another friend was just Hired to be a security person on the Princeton campus in SL...so in 10 years no question.. but I think the future will be here even sooner than we think with virtual worlds like SL.. great Story Ash!
