Hi! I  also have been lurking on this ListServ for quite a while and want to
introduce myself.  I work as a graduate assistant at the Texas Center for
Adult Literacy and Learning at Texas A&M University in College Station,
Texas.  I am a non-traditional older student. 

I want to respond to Lorette's email needing a resource for ESL.  I tutor
International students (private lessons) and I have found the book and audio
tapes "Clear Speech" by Judy B. Gilbert and published by Cambridge
University Press to be very useful.

Hope this helps.
