Shakespeare and English Speech Rhythm
Friends, teachers, Shakespeareans, lend me your experiences! What do you know about natural, English speech rhythm and how Shakespeare's use of language can help students with this? I am an ESL teacher in an intensive English program and am writing my master's thesis on using Shakespeare with ESL and EFL students in secondary and college levels. If you have any experience in this area please respond to my 15 question survey at http://english.boisestate.edu/skelso
