Native AmE speaker with GA accent. I'm interested in languages, phonetics, and how people learn. I teach english as a second/foreign language as well as english for specific purposes. I've studied Spanish in the past, speak German acceptably, and am currently learning Polish. Prior to teaching English, I wrote software professionally for 20 year. Mostly Webapps, but also software for both the desktop and handheld devices.
