It seems like there is a great deal of negativity at Dave’s ESL Cafe. I’m not sure if that’s just due to the type of personalities that have overrun the website, or if teaching in Korea really is a huge ordeal.
If you have any alternatives to Dave’s, I’d love to hear them!
Thanks!

Hello. I am in my first year of a three year primary teaching course and for our exam we have to investigate picture book theory, merits of learning about picture theory in primary education and the literacy skills they teach children, benefits of understanding this genre, the uniqueness of picture books and why they are so appealing to children, text to picture relationship in picture books and how they support or extend each other, how the design/layout of picture books works, the gap between written and visual text in ironic visual picture books (what is an ironic picture book please?)…

Teaching ESL with a dictionary sounds like as much fun as a 24 hour read-a-thon of Chomsky’s theories on innateness (if that sounds life fun to you…stop reading now). Honestly, when I first began teaching English as a Second Language (ESL), I never thought that I would be teaching classes with a picture dictionary. However, I’ve come to find that the Oxford Picture Dictionary, 2nd Edition is the book of ESL textbooks to use in any ESL class.
