My first time on Italki
Hello, I'm Tania from argentina, i'm 18 year old. I'm studying law, and I teach english in a kindergarten.
I interested in working as an au pair in the US and I need to improve my english, and I can help you with the spanish!
Hola Tania,
Some ideas and help:
We don't say "in Italki" we say "on" Italki. You can say "I'm in school", "I was in the pool", etc.,
but you would say I was "on vacation", I was "on the panel". Knowing what to say will come with practice. Don't worry, we english speaking spanish learners have to learn where all the "lo"s go!
Strangely it's kindergarten not kindergarden, a common enough mistake. The word comes from northern europe (probably German).
We generally refer to the United States as "the US", but if something is made in the US it'll be labeled "made in the USA". What's really fun is realizing after studying Spanish for a while that EEUU is referring to the US! :)
