오랜만에 만나서 반가웠어요. 언어는 자주 쓰는 게 중요해요. 수업을 자주 하지 않더라도 한국어를 최대한 많이 연습하는 게 좋아요.

    About myself

    Let me tell you a few words about myself
    My name is Galina. My mom wanted to name me Irina or Marina. But <strike>in that moment</strike> <font color="#00ff00"><font style="background-color: inherit;">at the time,</font> </font>my brother was in love with a girl and I was named by him in her honor
    I am 34 years old. I will celebrate <strike>the anniversary</strike> <font color="#00ff00" style="background-color: inherit;">my birthday </font>in 8 days. We are going to have a party.
    I live near Moscow in a big city, which <font color="#00ff00" style="background-color: inherit;">is called </font><strike>calls</strike> Odintsovo. But my home<font color="#00ff00" style="background-color: inherit;">town</font> <strike>region</strike> is Yakutya. It is very cold there in <font color="#00ff00" style="background-color: inherit;">the </font>winter and because of that my family decided to move. <font color="#00ff00" style="background-color: inherit;">As w</font>e had many relatives in Moscow,<font color="#00ff00" style="background-color: inherit;"> we </font><strike>and</strike> moved here. Then my husband and I <font color="#00ff00" style="background-color: inherit;">bought a house</font><strike>took a mortgage</strike> in Odintsovo.
    As for my family, I have a mother, a father and an older brother. And my own family consists of me, my husband and our little girl
    I work as a sale<font color="#00ff00" style="background-color: inherit;">s</font> manager in a pharmaceutical company. I like working with papers and figures. I really like my job.

    <font color="#9c00ff" style="background-color: inherit;">Hi Galina, welcome to italki and thank you for introducing yourself!</font>

    <font color="#9c00ff" style="background-color: inherit;">Here are a few pointers to improve for next time. </font>

    <font color="#9c00ff" style="background-color: inherit;">Anniversary is for weddings and not for birth - in English, we say 'birthday'. (Happy birthday, by the way!)</font>

    <font color="#9c00ff" style="background-color: inherit;">Saying 'took out a mortgage' is fine but it is a little unnatural here. Most people will just say, 'bought a house'. </font>

    <font color="#9c00ff" style="background-color: inherit;">Let me know if you have any questions!
    </font>

    Formal E-mail

    Dear Mr Watson,
    I am writing to enquire about the wildlife photography course in the Doñana National Park. <font color="#00e000" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">I love Spain and I like to take photographs</font>, but I am not very good at it.
    <strike>Besides</strike>, <font color="#00e000" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">I like animals</font>, especially birds, and three years ago I <strike>did</strike> <font color="#9c00ff" style="background-color: inherit;">took </font>a course <strike>about</strike><font color="#9c00ff"><font style="background-color: inherit;"> in</font> </font>ornithology. In addition, I would like to meet <strike>the</strike> Andalusian people, since I know that they are very friendly.
    If I had more time, I would visit Spain more often, but I am very busy at work and I have to take care of my children.
    I would be grateful if you could tell me how much the course costs and how long it lasts. I would also appreciate it if you could tell me if the flight is included in the price.

    I look forward to hearing from you.

    Yours sincerely,

    Peter Ropper

    <font color="#9c00ff" style="background-color: inherit;">Fantastic letter Rodrigo! You have used some advanced grammar (2nd conditional, indirect question, linking words). Your vocabulary could be better though! </font>

    <font color="#9c00ff" style="background-color: inherit;">I have highlighted a few parts which I think you could make more formal / use better vocabulary for. </font>

    <font color="#9c00ff" style="background-color: inherit;">For example: 'I like animals' => 'I really enjoy learning about animals'. </font>

    <font color="#9c00ff" style="background-color: inherit;">Let me know if you have any questions! Also, if you're practising for the Cambridge exams, then you should also include the question so that teachers can check if you have answered the question well.

    Oh, I would definitely be Hermione. I love learning new things and as soon as I put one book down, I usually can't wait to start reading again! Plus, I have a mane of bushy hair, so I feel like I understand her pain, ha ha!

    Hi Suki, you don't have to take part in the challenge 'officially'. Just challenging yourself is enough :) I think you're already doing that. I hope you are enjoying the italki website so far - it is a fantastic resource for language learners like you and me.

    Hi Roman, thanks for reading my article and I am sorry to hear that you feel stuck. It is very normal to feel stuck. Do not feel discouraged and definitely don't give up!

    What level are you currently at? What are your short term goals? A lot of my new students who complain about being stuck find that having an achievable short term goal helps to get 'unstuck'. 

    Also, I would love to help you with any points in the article that weren't clear - let me know! :)

    Reactivating

    Hello,
    Today I decided to reactivate my italki account after about four year as I <strike>am </strike>feel<strike>ing</strike> the need to brush up<font color="#0000ff" style="background-color: inherit;"> on</font> my English knowledge.
    I received <strike>many</strike> <font color="#0000ff" style="background-color: inherit;">much/a lot of </font>help here from teachers and native speakers when I was <strike>being</strike> an intermediate student.
    Now, I am here again to experience more.
    I gained my FCE certificate last year and am studying to obtain <font color="#0000ff" style="background-color: inherit;">the </font>CAE certificate as soon as possible in 2018.


    <font color="#ff0000">Good job Tara! The FCE is a difficult exam and you must be really proud. Let me know if there is anything I could do to help you prepare for the CAE exam. I've been teaching the Cambridge exams for many years now and I think it is a fantastic way to push yourself. </font>

    <font color="#ff0000"></font>

    <font color="#ff0000">Here are some pointers for your next writing:</font>

    <font color="#ff0000">1. Watch out for verbs like 'be' - they are generally not used in continuous tenses as they often describe states. They are tricky because they can also describe short term transitory states.</font>

    <font color="#ff0000">For example:</font>

    <font color="#ff0000">I was an intermediate student - this was a state in your past and not an action - use the simple tense only.</font>

    <font color="#ff0000">On the other hand, you can use 'be' to refer to a transitory state like this:</font>

    <font color="#ff0000">You're being a bit silly! = You're not acting as you usually do and I don't expect you to continue being like this for a long period of time. </font>

    <font color="#ff0000">2. Countable / Uncountable - much vs many</font>

    <font color="#ff0000">I hope this helps!
    </font>
