Teaching English as a Skill, Rather Than a Subject

Yesterday I said in my blog that English should be used in English class as a tool of communication, which I tried my best to do when I was teaching. The effect may not be seen soon, but it will reach far.  Here is a text message I got late last night from the former angel student who, as I mentioned in yesterday's blog, was fresh from college and got a new job, along with the other two.

"Dear angel, The reason they choose chose me is was  [my] English speaking ability, which related closely with is closely related to / you. Love you as always!  U r so important to me!  Best wishes!"

Again, English should be learned as a skill, not a subject.
