Great clues from fizzbut

... but EFL doesn't mean English as a First Language. It stands for English as a Foreign Language (such as when it is studied in Japan, France or South Korea). ESL stands for English as a Second Language (such as when a migrant studies English in an English-speaking community - such as in the UK or the USA). These days, a new term EAL (English as an Additional Language) is being used, to recognize that there are elective students of English studying in English-speaking countries who are not migrants...... although I doubt anyone will be reading this ever, I couldn't let the comment on EFL below go unchallenged... PEAE!

J, 8, Q, 9 first. You should be able to play up through the J and 8 by the end of the dogpile the first time through and then play back through the pile without a flip.

Oh, that makes sense, being an English teacher it stands to reason you would teach English as a first language; we just don't call it that.
Bring down 10 also, you can play spades up the 1st time through the deck.
