Welcome to ELA! All of us here believe that you can both learn a lot of English this term and have a great deal of fun. Fun? How? Well, first, make friends with students in your classes. Second, take advantage of the many things to do in Chicago this every week: music, food, sports, art, movies, dance, museums. It's all here.

Would you like to see what other students have said about ELA club trips? Then click here on REVIEW to read what they've written. If you'd like to write your own review and have it published here on our Web site, just email me at wwwolf@wppost.depaul.edu.

We've had three reviews submitted to this web site which is good. ALL have been written by Thai students!! Eddy wrote about soccer and dancing, Laddawan about Japanese food, and Gun about movie theaters and toilets. Congratulations, especially for Gun who volunteered the best Chicago toilet review I have ever read.

Chicago

This is the place to look for things having to do specifically with Chicago. If you want to know about some of the architecture near DePaul's Loop campus or if you'd like to know about movies that are being shown--what, where, when--this is the place to look.

International

Here I've got a number of links to newspapers around in world and in many different languages. If you want to find online information about Bolivia or Botswana, China or the Czech Republic, Italy or Iran, then this is the right place.

For people who love to eat, I'm working on a guide to food from around the world. If you've ever gone to a restaurant but couldn't understand the menu, or if you were unsure what the food from a particular culture would taste like, then this page should help.

Language and ESL
Many of those reading these pages will be students of English as a Second Language. I'll try to put in a number of links to famous, useful, and interesting sites on the web for people who want to improve their English. My father has been studying Spanish intensively for about a year, and I'll also try to include information here for him and others who are studying some language other than English.

ELA

This will be the place to find information directly connected with ELA. The syllabus for each class will be posted here as well as schedules for any class trips. Each semester, we'll visit a few museums and also go out to dinner. During the summer, there are usually even more activities: boat tours, ball games, and beach outings.

Discussion Group Do you want to share ideas with other students from ELA? This discussion group is open to everyone: ELA students and teachers, their friends, even total strangers.
