I have always loved teaching. Above all I enjoyed the special relationships I had both with my students and the wonderful young colleagues I worked with. During the last years of my university career numerous former students as well as my colleagues said I should find some way of teaching others the "method" I had developed. They claimed they had learned a great from me and encouraged me to write about the way I motivated students to learn to speak "correct English". When I discovered the tremendous educational potential of information technology, I decided that I would write a "digital resource book" with hyperlinks to a document annex containing most of the materials I has created over the years. Later I
decided to include work done by my students during the course in the form of written exercises, talk handouts, PowerPoint presentations and even films. The final project became a DVD with more than 1, 500 files!
