I met Jason West on LinkedIn a few years ago when he absolutely blew me away with his refreshing and highly successful approach to teaching people to speak English comfortably in a very short span of time. Essentially, Jason takes away the elements that stop learners from speaking English in a well-engineered series of lessons, then prepares them for a successful experience at their worst nightmare - talking to strangers in public.
Jason's company www.EnglishOutThere.com is based outside of London, England, Jason arranges home-stays for his students' visits and inside of a week he sets them loose in Trafalgar Square where they put his coaching to the test. Once learners experience success at the one thing they were sure they could never do, their confidence soars. Expressing themselves anywhere, at any time to anyone is suddenly child's play.
I noticed a link to an offer of Jason's to teach his method to ESL/EFL teachers and I am so enamored with Jason's system I'm posting it for you. http://englishoutthere.com/home-page/speak-english-challenge
Watch this blog for more ideas from Radical Teachers where ever we find them.
