Rick,

I'm writing to express my satisfaction using the Acorn System. As a busy ESL instructor teaching students in southern China, the ability to easily access professional development helps to keep one abreast of the latest in the ESL sector. The system is convenient and one may choose to view a session whenever there's a free hour or two in your day.

With the on-line support, any of my questions about using the system were answered in a timely manner. I highly recommend other teachers try the on-line system offered by ACORN.

Sincerely,

Eva Ing
ESL Instructor
