Hello, I would like to find a Spanish/English language exchange partner. I have been a volunteer English tutor before and helped people from Mexico learn English. I am very patient and I think I am a good teacher! I have tried to learn Spanish for years, but languages are hard for me. I studied Spanish for about 8 years in school, so I have a good foundation. But I have never gotten past the beginner/intermediate level. I went to Ecuador about 7 years ago and spent a month trying to learn Spanish. I learned more in that one month than I did in the 8 years I studied Spanish in school! I really need to practice talking to someone in Spanish. I own an organic vegetable farm with my husband in Colorado. We have several people from Mexico who work on our farm and I want to be able to talk to them in Spanish. Amy

    "You have a too tall girlfriend" is not correct. However you could say " You have a tall girlfriend" or "Your girlfriend is too tall." But the whole sentence is incorrect. It should be "Your boyfriend is too short." :-)

    I am going to use the affirmative to make it easier. "He drank a little." This could mean several things. "He drank a little bit." (quantity) "He drank infrequently." (frequency) "He drank little." This would only refer to frequency--implying that he did not drink often.

    That is correct--"upon" is more formal. You could probably just use "on" and never use "upon". I can't remember the last time I used "upon" in a sentence. You would probably use "upon" in a literary or poetic sense.

    Hello,

    I'd be happy to help with your CV. I tried to make some corrections, but I'm not sure what you are trying to say. If you want, I can go through each part with you and make the meaning clear.

     

    Where are you trying to get a job? Are you looking in an English-speaking country? I own my own business and look at a lot of CVs from people.

     

    Good luck!

    Amy

    First notebook entry: Introducing myself

    Hello, my name is Sara. My native language is Spanish and I grew up in Spain.
    I am learning English, because I studied a career that requires English to be up to date. It is dentistry and most of researches the research or articles about topics related to it are in English, and there many technicalities, keywords or phrases and specific expressions to this profession which if I don`t know I will not be able to improve or understand my knowdlege about dentistry. Also Spanish people are living a several situation in my country actually: "the famous economic crisis"! For that reason, I should not rule out the possibility of a future work outside Spain, and if that happened, the English language would be essential to carry out.

    Now, it's the moment time to talk about myself. I am 24 years old, I finished my carrear college a year and a half ago and I continued my education with master studies but actually I have no job.
    I enjoy going out with my friends and boyfriend, playing basketball or another sport, whatching watching movies or series shows on TV, coocking at the kitchen cakes and desserts cooking (or making) cakes and desserts, lunching at restaurants to tasting new foods eating lunch at restaurants to try new foods, travelling or hiking to discover new places or simply relaxing in my bedroom listenning listening to music or reading a book.
    I'm very sociable, funny, with happy appearance and I like to meet nice people, so... Wellcomeeeeeeeeeeeee to my corner!!! :) bye!!

    I hope you enjoyed reading about me! ;)
