Press Release: English Learners Speak for Themselves in World’s 1st Documentary Series on Learning English

“The Learning English Video Project” is a first of its kind 7-part series of documentary films about people learning English on 5 continents. Each film features people in 7 countries who have their own methods and reasons for learning English. The series provides a glimpse into the global ESL (English as a Second Language) community. Filmed in Morocco, Romania, USA, Spain, China, Brazil and the UK, the series will be released free online (with and without English subtitles), together with free suplementary resource materials for learners and teachers, so that it can be viewed as pure documentary or learning tool as well.

Don’t you just love this non-PC book cover? I have no idea what’s inside it because it’s a novel written in Polish. Apparently the title means “Which way” (or perhaps “Which way?”). And it’s written by Daniel Emmerson, who’s currently making the EnglishClub.com documentary film on learning English. If you’re Polish, or even if you aren’t but can read Polish, or even if you can’t read Polish but just like the cover, or Daniel, you can get the book online here. Personally I’m looking forward to my own free, signed copy—which Daniel promised to send me even though I don’t speak a word of Polish

What do YOU think about the cover anyway? Please leave your comments.

Here’s an interesting new blog:
