Talk at a symposium
 
I want to talk at a symposium.  This is my very first time.  It is a symposium about ESL.  I have no idea what to talk about.  Any ideas, topics.  I will of course develop them myself.   Could any of you help me? Thank you.  by Cristina - on another discussion line 27th september.
 
Hi Cristina.  I am sorry i did not see this question before.  I am sure there are plenty of people who would like to put forward ideas - hence i have copied and pasted your comment.
 
One of the topics close to my heart is grammar versus doing.  Should we be teaching our children a whole lot of grammatical rules - or should we have the children talking, reading, listening and writing.  What is more important - they be more grammatically correct than a native english speaker  or they be able to get across a message. 
 
I would love to hear peoples opinion on my topic - and also see suggestions of topics for Cristina�s symposium.
