He's starting an English school, so I'd say I was more of an "irony nazi"

I would be very surprised if any one see his $100 dollars, like to be proved wrong but I have my doubts.

No offense to you hollister, but you're like one the first ever. So bravo for actually holding up your end of the bargain.

Find the grammatical errors in the message of the guy starting an English school.
I tried, I failed. I stopped at about 23.

It's a school that goes on in the summer.
The name I came up with is "English Summer Academy" which [is like] abbreviates as ESA.
I think it's (or I thought it was) [kind of] somewhat nice, but I'm thinking (too much thinking going on in this sentence) if we can make it [more cool or a fun name] sound cooler or funnier.
So, the main things about it are these - it is an English summer school and it takes place in London.
However, I don't want the word London in it, as imagine if it gets popular, we should be able to do it in [all] other countries.
Also, I am not too sure on the word SUMMER ... if I can get that out, that would be cool.
It can be one word or three words, like I have done.
Any ideas, guys?

English Summer Academy
1. You already butchered the "English" part.
2. You want to take the "Summer" out.
3. It can be one word or three words.
Academy
Ta-daa!

Well in England we dont really use the word Academy much, thats used more in America.
School or College is used more often.
So how about 'Native Language College' NLC

How about B.U.T.T. Buy Us Terminology Teachers... I know it's a stretch but it's got such a catchy name!

Ya know what, in this case its nice to be proven wrong. Well done to those that participated and nice to see you keep ya word hollisterb, (Ya did get the money 2rey )
Next time mate you should set it up as a contest rather than a job. Get ya rules straight, set a completion date, make sure you are clear on what you want and then when you pick a winner work with them on changes via email or pm after the contest closes. Im sure you will have a bigger response if you do it this way.
Shit I may even enter, did not want to embarrass 2rey or marco
God I crack me up
Well done to all, glad it turned out ok.
