Compelling Conversations site is up and running again!

Sometimes you don’t appreciate something until you lose it.

My website, down and out for almost a week of tech turmoil as I changed server, host, and webmaster, demonstrates this point. The site, www.compellingconversations.com , has been restored and even slightly upgraded. The check out system, for instance, takes consumers directly to Paypal – saving time and reducing hassle. The blog, still primitive, is a more advanced version of WordPress, but I still don’t really know what that means in practical terms. I seem to have lost numerous blog postings, but these brief musings are first thoughts and not finely crafted essay. The free conversation lessons and five book chapters on Traveling, Studying English, Being Yourself, Talking about Movies, and Practicing Job Interviews,  can be easily downloaded.

I’m still learning – and sometimes stumbling, but the website is stronger, safer, and deeper than before.

Please drop by, check out the free lessons, and read about creating lively ESL classroom discussions. As ever, please contact me if you have any questions, suggestions, or comments at talktome@compellingconversations.com.

Enjoy!
