Wayne,

Give me a call at Westall for a phone chat, most of my students have an ESL
background and I can give you some strategies to help things along. It is
challenging but really good that you have picked this up early.

I recall a couple of years ago, the word 'robust' stumped many (slaps
forehead). You'll get there ..

Regards Roland
