Honoring the memory of James E. Alatis, Grace Stovall Burkart, Dora Johnson, and Anna Uhl Chamot, without whom this site would not exist.

“Good teaching happens when competent teachers with non-discouraging personalities use non-defensive approaches to language teaching and learning, and cherish their students.”
Dr. James E. Alatis, Dean Emeritus
School of Languages and Linguistics, Georgetown University
