Thanks for visiting my little blog. As for your question, I usually teach small classes of 10-20 international (ESL) graduate students in academic writing and oral skills. Yet Compelling Conversations comes out of my intermediate and advanced conversation classes at Santa Monica College with 15-30 students. I also tutored a bit on the side since the hours were insufficient for my lifestyle. Now I'm fulltime at USC, but many of my colleagues continue to tutor and use Compelling Conversations. Finally, I've been meaning to put the final touches on a few projects - completion seems to be a big issue these days - and will get you that review by Monday.

Just out of interest, which kinds of classes did you first develop the materials that went into your book with? I’d always assumed you just taught large university classes, for some reason.
