Udon Thani Rajabhat University 

This website was set up to help in the communication of the English language and its teaching and learning whilst I am employed at the Language Center, Udon Thani Rajabhat University in north-eastern Thailand.

Hopefully, both students and teachers will find the information contained in this site useful, especially my students, who can now access their homework assignments and catch up on their class-work, even when they have been absent from class.

The internet and the English language are major tools for participants in the global economy. All students in Thailand need the practice and experience of using these tools if they are to succeed when they leave the safety of their educational environments and venture out into the wider world.

Please note that steves-english-zone is not responsible for the content of external internet sites.
