Mike's an American who's been running a language school in Istres near Marseille since 1976. He's also the brains behind Real English, an ESL site that utilizes authentic and natural ESL videos of people speaking real English on streets across the globe. The lessons are all free and free-access. Here's how Mike describes the site:
This site combines ESL grammar and functions with the spontaneity provided by the people we meet casually during our filming campaigns. You will not find any actors here. All of our clips are based on people being themselves, speaking naturally and spontaneously, just like in the situations which learners will deal with when their training is finished, when they travel to English-speaking countries, or when they welcome English speakers into their homes and offices. If you're looking for authentic video material specifically designed for ESL (with exercises), Real English is a really valuable resource. Be sure to check out the New Flash Video Lessons, which you could easily miss.
