Actively Engaged in Business

Frank has never failed to impress me with his politeness, professionalism, and the pedagogical soundness of his materials.

Frank is a true professional, knowledgeable in many areas of study, and especially adept at creating unique training materials and training teachers of ESOL.

Nobody knows more about teaching ESL academic writing than Frank Bonkowski. If you’re looking for a teaching resource, look no further: Frank is an ideal mentor, and this course will give you everything you need to teach the subject.

I’ve known Frank both as a friend and colleague for the last 13 years. He’s one of those rare individuals who combines passion, enthusiasm and professionalism in his engagements. Lifelong learning and teaching are two of the values that drive him. From first-hand experience, I can say he’s an outstanding teacher.

As an accomplished writer, teacher and mentor, Frank Bonkowski is truly what I would consider to be professional, thorough, passionate and dedicated. Frank receives great joy in seeing others grow and develop through the learning process.

The course, Teaching Writing to Intermediate and Advanced Learners, is full of practical ideas that I could implement the next day with my students. I loved how the modules had a written outline and a video which appealed to various learning styles. Resources like the WIDA rubrics and the virtual writing tutor were very helpful. I would recommend this course to any teacher looking to make their writing instruction more effective and engaging.

If you're looking for ESL resources for writing, Frank's materials make an excellent choice. Each aspect of writing is broken down into manageable modules that students can follow at their own pace. Frank is highly knowledgeable in his field and his passion for his subject comes across in his engaging lectures. I used his Academic Writing Course to teach advanced ESL College students, and found this to be a great choice.

Taking “Teaching Writing to Intermediate and Intermediate English Learners” has been such a learning experience! Both personally and professionally. I found it very inspiring and energizing to view the lectures and read the texts and I have a notebook full of ideas and sources I want to work on . . . Through this course, I have realised much more clearly what it is that I like about teaching and what way suits me best. Using authentic materials is a very important aspect to me, having been immersed in a non-native speaking environment for so many years. What I also liked very much was that it was American English. I am so used to British English that is is enriching to be exposed to the American accent and style.
