Hi!
I think that to stop some people (who I hope are not using such a lack of methodology with their ELD students) from having to remind all of us, teachers, of common sense grammar rules that most people ignore (don't ask me why, I'm too busy dealing with my lack of grammatical mistakes, I am a non-native English language teacher, which among other things implies that I speak more languages) it would be nice to do the following:
1) If you think that somebody in particular is responsible for something so generic as the fact that some schools do not hire teachers because they are non-native please tell him/her in private. I would not like to have such an overwhelming responsibility on my shoulders!
2) If you want to publish a book on grammar and spelling, please go ahead and do it! And let everybody else enjoy this spontaneity of speaking out your mind on ESL.
3) Please, use the tools bar and self-correct your messages.
Have a great day!
