Ask the English Teacher: Off on Holiday

Off on Holiday

I'll be away from my computer for a few days, but I hope to post some new material before New Year's. If you send me questions, I'll answer them as soon as I'm back.

Hope everyone is having a happy holiday, and may 2005 be a very good year for you.
