"As an English learner for 30 years, an English teacher/instructor for 18 years and as a PhD candidate, I have been following Stephen Krashen's videos etc esp on the importance of Reading, and very very very luckily just today when I googled Stephen Krashen again, on the right handside I saw some other names one of whom was Paul Nation whose name I definitely remember from many articles. I said "let me go through Paul Nation,too". Oh my God, Oh my God.; an unbelievable man.; Oh God, take him to your paradise/heavens pls.; he has already deserved it. What a prolific, hardworking and generous professor. I salute you sir.. in my culture we kiss the hands of our elderly and respected people.. if u allow me, I would like to kiss your hands. I thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. May God/Allah bless you.. May He protect you and your beloved ones from any trouble here and in the after life. I wish I could contribute to our ELT world as much as a drop of your ocean. You are an ocean sir. Thank you."

I would like to express my thankful. I really appreciate it
AMAZING, I've been reading "teaching esl/efl listening and speaking" and it really breaks this down.
Didn't know that Dr. Nation has a great sense of humour! Enjoyed the video!
So inspiring for my dream job
This guy's great.
Could somebody list the research cited in his speech?
26 min mark for the good info
Wouldn't shadowing be focus studying? Trying to improve pronounciation
