SHE ASKED ME TO TEACH HER When I started learning English seven years ago it was amazing because I was very excited to able to speak a different language. I studied everything I could all at once. I met some people from the United States that were on my city and I felt really happy because I could communicate with them. And I was getting better every day. When achieved an advanced level of English I could understand almost everything in casual conversations and in intermediate texts. But then, I think I got a little bit lost on where to go. An advanced learner of any language is supposed to see more of cultural things than any other student, when you get to this level you mastered almost one hundred per cent of the most common words used in common situations. Last week I was watching Friends and a friend of mine was impressed that I could understand what they were saying. She was amazed when I talked in English with a teacher from university a month ago. And then she came to me asking(insisting, actually) that I could teach English to her. At first, I didn’t give too much of attention but she came again telling me that she wants very much to learn English. I told her that my English is not perfect and that I still have a lot of things to learn and that I might not be capable to teach you properly. I am really needing some money but I can’t do something I’m not one completely sure. She told me that I can speak English very good and that she wants herself to speak just like I do. What do you think I should do, my friends?

SHE ASKED ME TO TEACH HER

When I started learning English seven years ago it was amazing because I was very excited to able to speak a different language. I studied everything I could all at once. I met some people from the United States that were on in my city and I felt really happy because I could communicate with them. And I was getting better every day.
When I achieved an advanced level of English I could understand almost everything in casual conversations and in intermediate texts. But then, I think I got a little bit lost on where to go. An advanced learner of any language is supposed to see more of the cultural things than any other student, when you get to this level you mastered almost one hundred per cent of the most common words used in common situations.
Last week I was watching Friends and a friend of mine was impressed that I could understand what they were saying. She was amazed when I talked in English with a teacher from university a month ago. And then she came to me asking if (insisting, actually) that I could teach her English to her ("to her" is not wrong, but "teach her" sounds much more natural). At first, I didn’t give it too much of attention but she came to me again telling me that she wants very much to learn English.
I told her that my English is not perfect and that I still have a lot of things to learn and that I might not be capable to of teaching you her properly. I am really needing some money, but I can’t do something that I’m not one completely sure about. (one? "one hundred percent sure of?") She told me that I can speak very good English very good (or, "speak english very well") and that she wants herself to speak just like I do. What do you think I should do, my friends?
