I just got a new cell phone and can't understand the directions in the
book that came with it.  Who writes those things?  I'd be interested in
lessons for myself!  The directions came in Spanish, but I assume they
are as poorly written (or worse) than the English version.  Right now I
don't know of any ESOL lessons, but will ask my colleagues and let you
know if we come up with something.

Subject: [EnglishLanguage 597] ESOL and mobile phones


English language learning colleagues,

I wonder if adult ESOL classes help people who have mobile (cell)  
phones to use them more fully.  Is anyone aware of good directions  
for using a mobile phone, written in plain English, with good  
illustrations and diagrams, that might be suitable for adult basic  
skills learners?  I would be especially interested in any lessons  
designed for helping ESOL students use mobile phones.

Thanks,

David J. Rosen
