What I get from A J Hoge

A.J. Hoge has a huge online presence. However, I can only take the man in small doses (sorry), though that might not be so if I was actually learning English. Then, I might then find him and his material much more useful.

Nevertheless, I am appreciative for a couple of things: His nail-hit-on-the-head description of  English class in Japan, and the notion of coaching (as opposed to teaching). The latter is a relatively recent concept, as you can see on the graph below (from Google ngram).
