CRAAAAAZZZZZYYYYYYY ENGLISH

I will be teaching Crazy English this summer. Crazy English is this method for learning English, created by a Chinese man, named Li Yang. Li Yang has translated for Tony Robbins; it is told me, that he was the only Cninese translator with enought gusto and umph to translate for Tony Robbins. You know why, if you have "the Edge." I am told, well I get the idea, that Crazy English is all about being crazy enough to use a language before you fully understand it, by speaking out loud, and acting out the language while you learn. It is really quite fascinating to me. This is the way i like to learn: dive in, get your feet wet, heck, get your hair wet too. You can philosophize on mastery later. After all, native speakers get their feet wet with experience before they move on to art......

I am teaching for three 8 day periods at the summer camp. It is 8 days of intensive English training. Should be an experience to remember.
