Fri, 10 Jan 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Peculiarities of the English Language Every ESL Teacher Needs to Know A language is a tool that allows us to organize our thoughts as well as to communicate.

TEFL Hanoi | TEFL Vietnam There’s only a handful of cities in the world that truly deserve ‘must visit’ status and Hanoi is certainly one of them.
