Introducing ESL Cafe

What do you think of when you think of a cafe?

A warm beverage? A place to meet with friends? Something to eat? Sights & smells? Stimulating conversation?

For me, the image of a cafe captures what ideally a language learning experience should be:
  • Out in the community
  • Part of your daily routine
  • Relaxed
  • stimulating
  • social
  • warm
  • natural
So this blog will be about the experiences & observations of as well as ideas for living ESL out in the real world.

If you have anything to share along these lines, comments & contributions to the conversation are welcome.

In the meantime, take a sip, sit back and see if there's anyone here you know.
