Default Re: Systemic Functional Linguistics

Hi,

I'm currently studying at Sydney Uni and have been teaching for over 5 years. A developing understanding of SFL is helping me fill in all the gaps and excceptions to the rules found in 'traditional' grammar. Using everything in context, and taking into account the different levels of choices a speaker makes language much easier.

I've been using 'real' newspapers in Int. ESL classes with good results, and while currently on holiday (hence enough time to find this!) am searching for more info. and ideas, etc.

Look forward to reading some more ideas!

Daniel
