• Should tutor trainees have any questions about articles (a, an, the), there is a reference sheet provided for facilitator use.

    • Note: Articles (a, an, the) are also a problem in Hyun-Chu's written text but are not errors that interfere with communication. A short lesson about articles could easily be left for another session.

    • You may want to point out to trainees that articles do not exist in a number of languages and are very difficult for many ESL learners to use accurately. Articles are often a reoccurring problem that need work on an ongoing basis.
