In college or at the university? IN vs. AT THE When asking a student about their studies, I would either say: 1. "What are you studying in college?" Or, 2. "What are you studying at the university?" My question is, why say IN college or AT THE university? All I know is, that is how I would naturally say it in English, And I don't know why.

Learning multiple languages

For those of you studying multiple languages at the same time, is it difficult?  If a person had two hours per day dedicated to study, is it better to concentrate that time on one language, or one hour in each?

Arabic radio

What is a good Aribic radio station that a teenager would enjoy while he is learning Arabic?

What about a good Russian station?

Teenager to visit the Middle East

My son, Ezra, is 16 years old. He wants to learn MSA Arabic. I'm open to send him over for 90 days (length of a visa) for him to get a good start through some total immersion. While over there, I would also want him to learn some of the culture, and about the Islamic faith. I would think he would enjoy a family with some teenagers. I do not know anything about the culture in the Middle East. Does anybody have any suggestions on how to make this happen? Is it a crazy idea?

Practice speaking and reading English

Hello. I tried helping someone yesterday with some English. They read to me from their textbook. It didn't go very well because they had to spell every other word so I would know what they were trying to say. So, after thinking about it, I thought it would be interesting to send out a quote, and whoever wants to read it to me can call me on Skype and read it.
Personally, I'm not in this for the friendship, but to help the few who wants to do this.

 

Here is an example (I got this from the 'Daily Inspirations and Quotes", a free iPhone app by JCTROIS Inc.):

 

"If we treat people as they are, we make them worse. If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming."
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe - German Writer (1749-1832)

Do you know someone who is selfish, loud and obnoxious, or someone who lies, cheats and is disrespectful? To treat a liar as a liar only serves to make their behavior worse. To view that person as a liar keeps them in that place of distrust. Can you imagine them with more noble qualities? The key is to treat such people as if their behavior is as it should be. Can you give any greater gift than that of acceptance? When that person can begin to see themselves through your eyes as worthy and acceptable, you have just extended them the gift of grace. At that point of feeling worthy that person can turn that gift of grace into new eyes for themselves and begin the journey of finding their true potential. Is there someone waiting for a new set of eyes through which to view themselves?

Exchange students for summer 2014

My wife and I would be open to sponsering a teenage youth or young adult to our home this summer. Prefer someone from Egypt since our 16 year old son is learning Arabic.  Open to gender and religion. We do not tolerate cussing, smoking, nor crudeness. 

Would there be any interest out there?

 

زوجتي، وستكون مفتوحة أمام المقدم للشباب في سن المراهقة أو الشباب البالغين لوطننا هذا الصيف. تفضل شخص من مصر منذ أن ابنه البالغ من العمر 16 سنة من تعلم اللغة العربية. مفتوحة لنوع الجنس أو الدين.
