Abstract: A short, free, authentic professional development video for teachers in which an adult ESOL teacher, basing his lesson on Stephen Krashen's theory of natural language, creates a relaxed atmosphere for language learning, lowering the affective filter- to help students take risks in learning the new language. He includes American baseball as content because some of the students had said they want to better understand the game. The video will be found at this web address: http://www.mlots.org/?page_id=76
