Es hat Spaß gemacht mit Richard zu sprechen, er kann auf Deutsch alle möglichen Themen besprechen und hat keine Angst vor den Fehlern. Bis bald!

This student was very nice, easy to talk to and had a defined idea of what he would like to achieve from having lessons. After a few minutes of technical calibration finding the best connection, we discussed the general outline of my lessons, my background as well as the student's background, ambitions and situation. Richard was very happy to start conversing in the target language and gave me a good initial understanding of his level. He has a clear goal in mind, which is great!

    I think the meaning is clear but you would often use arrived with a place - such as she arrived at the airport - so in the context of your sentence it would be

    she said that she had arrived at our house to stay for a few days.

    a simpler version might be.

    She said she had come to stay a few days with us.

    I attended the KPMG Webinar today. I am excited to learn more about the digital transformation you spoke about in from <s>your</s> speech. Particularly, I liked your answer to the last question of whether small enterprises should implement Blockchain. I agree, for digital transformation, we need to put the business owners' needs and goals as priorities. 

    If you don't mind me <s>I </s>asking in terms of your comment on the digital implementation, you said that:" the business owner should be aware that digital transformation is an ongoing improvement, there might be failures during the process". 

    But, when <s>the</s> a project fails or needs to change to a new path, how does the digital consultant handle<s>s </s>the situation well? For my understanding, the clients pay for the consultancy and they expect positive outcomes. Most of them even don't understand the technical process or challenges. 

    Would your team educate<s>s </s>the customers <s>since </s> from the beginning for the <s>failure </s>possibility of failure or do you have a particular risk-management strategy for the problem? 



    I hope that helps.

    To ‘swing from the chandeliers’ is something you might do at a wild party with your best friends. If you ‘didn’t swing from the chandeliers’ then you had a good time but it wasn’t wild - so your relationship is good but not amazing.

    If someone asks how can they help you, it is usually a genuine question. So a response may be

    person 1 : How can I help you?
    you: I would like to ask you some questions about the course. What did you think of .......

    if they did not want to talk with you further they would just end the reply with something like ....

    Good luck on the course.

    if an English speaker asks a question, they are inviting a reply.

    With LinkedIn, people often just want to build up connections. Asking questions is fine if they are work related. Once they have replied, you would reply if you have another question. If you don’t then a simple thanks will end the conversation.

    Can someone correct this email?

    I'm doing a project in college on people's first jobs. Can you help me by describing your first job, when you did it, what you le<font color="#ff0000" style="background-color: inherit;">a</font>rned from it and any problems you had with it? Thanks, Bob.

    My email to Bob:

    Hi Bob
    I am glad to hear from you.
    I had my first job in the summer of 2014, as a receptionist <strike>in</strike> <font color="#ff0000" style="background-color: inherit;">at</font> a camping <font color="#ff0000" style="background-color: inherit;">site</font>. At the beginning<strike>,</strike> I was completely lost and scared, but I got used to it after two days.
    The first week<strike>,</strike> I learned how to use the computer programme and I started to do the check in and check out of <strike>the</strike> customers. After that<strike>,</strike> I learned how to book and attend<strike>ing</strike> <font color="#ff0000" style="background-color: inherit;">to</font> phone calls, <font color="#ff0000" style="background-color: inherit;">including</font> complaints and cancellations. It seems a monotonous job, but since you have to deal with many different people every day, it turns out to be very enjoyable.
    As well as all the tasks that I had to learn, I found out about the skills that a receptionist must have, such as being good at explaining things<font color="#ff0000" style="background-color: inherit;">,</font> and at It is important to keep calm under pressure, especially <strike>on</strike> <font color="#ff0000" style="background-color: inherit;">at</font> high season <strike>and</strike> with customers’ complaints. In fact, customers’ complaints were the only problems I had, but I solved them calmly.
    I hope this helps you with your project.
    Regards,
    Inma

    Context is everything. More neutral would be 'Have I made a mistake?' this implies good intentions,
