| I send my students to Rachel's English for extra practice on pronunciation, accent reduction and more. She's very effective, IMO. https://www.rachelsenglish.com/ |

A lesson that is relevant to my students, and which makes sense to them (being who they are) and to me (in my specific teaching context) may seem utterly irrelevant to a more general audience.
Even though, of course, it's an utterly brilliant lesson in every respect in reality . |
This is exactly how I view my lessons! I may venture into the world of youtube and post something one of these days. |

| Ah, Spiral! So long as it is ideologically correct, with no deviations from the true path, then how could it not be relevant to all? |
Oh, Sasha. Haven't you and your students got secret code-words, passwords, and in-jokes??!! Come join the club, and then you'll be on the True True Path. |

The Chinese teacher starts OK but gets a bit too strident with the explanation.
The Russian lady disappointed me because she made no mention of the MP44 ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qscJdFCH9EE ).  |
