Hello, WSmith!
I can understand how the Asia-centric nature of this forum is not appropriate for your interests.
Here's a weblink for Dave's ESL Cafe -- Russia and C.I.S. discussion forum:

You will be required to register a user account, which will be verified. You must wait perhaps a day or two for account confirmation.
Hopefully, you can find some new friends and colleagues there.
Best wishes to you!

While this board is well-run and very informative, my primary interest is not in China or east/south-east Asia.
I'm interested in finding a similar board that addresses ESL instruction in Russia and its former states. Could someone direct me to such a board?
