Bonjour tout le monde! Je m'appelle Michel, et à ce moment, j'habite à Salt Lake City, en États Unis. J'ai appendu en peu de Français quand je suis allé au lycée, et à ce moment, j'ai commencé à apprendre l'Italien aussi. J'espère à parler avec les français et L'italiennes, parce que je peux leur aider à apprendre l'anglais, et aussi, je peux pratiquer mes français et italien. Et moi? Je travaille à une laboratoire, qui est dans un hôpital. J'aime beaucoup à courir les semi-marathons (mais un peu lentement!), et aussi, je fais beaucoup du ski en hiver. Ciao tutti! Mi chiamo Michele, e vivo a Salt Lake City, negli Stati Uniti. Io cominio imparare Italiano, e Io parlo un po di francese. Spero a lei aiuta imparare Inglese, e io posso imparare Italiano e Francese. E io? Lavoro al laboratorio, ci è nell'ospeadale. Corro Le metà maratone (ma un po lentamente!) e scio d'inverno. Grazie, tutti! Hello Everyone! I am Michael, and I currently live in Salt Lake City, in the United States. I learned to speak French during my studies in school, and I am actively working to learn Italian as well at the moment. I look forward to speaking with other native French and Italian speakers who want to practice or improve on their English, and at the same time, I'll do the same with French and Italian. I really look forward to helping others learn English, as I feel that one of the best ways to further learn your own language is to teach it.

    Hi Jean, It would vary a little depending on the actual job posting, but generally I would put the specific job title, my full name, and any posting number if there is one. For example: Joe Smith's application for Laboratory Techinician Position, job posting number 5389. The idea is to get all the important information right there, while keeping the subject line from getting too lengthy. Hope that helps! Michael

    Hi Tatiana, excellent job! Your English is very good. I made a few corrections and suggested changes below in yellow.

    Yesterday we visited a free lecture that was led by a British guy

    Yesterday we visited a free lecture that was led by a British guy. The article (I would use lecture title here, article is more for newspaper stories) was 'How to be a lifelong English learner'. The idea of his lecture was that we can 'learn' a language and we can 'acquire' it.

    When you learn grammar and vocabulary you feel that this is a hard work, and sometimes you have to force yourself to study. You can feel edgy and tense at that time, so it makes a the process unenjoyable.

    On the other hand, when you receive new words like a newborn baby by listening and taking your time to understand it, you will get a more effective result. Even if you are relaxed in a bar with a glass of beer, you will absorb new language constructions better than in a class.
    Actually, I know a one (only one or a is needed here, as both generally mean the same thing.)  man who can be would be the best example of this idea:-) (if you want to still use the verb can be, you could change the wording around to make it sound better, ex: can be described as the best example)

    Honestly, I steel still can't believe that it works, yet I believe that by combining the two methods you can achieve your language goals.

    Hi Matthew- 1) both are correct, although where I live (western USA), I would more likely hear: "I called you yesterday" 2) That is correct, although I would say "Please don't rush to a decision" 3) I would change the positioning of the words above and below in your sentence - for example "Please correct the information above and delete the information below." Basically, I moved the adjectives from in front of the noun to after the noun. 4) For your first sentence, add the verb is, in between Hong Kong and located - "Hong Kong is located in China." For the second sentence, I'm assuming Central is a neighborhood or district of Hong Kong, and in those cases, I would use in. "The headquarter of HSBC in Hong Kong is located on ABC street in Central." I would use the word at if Central was a specific place, for example "The headquarters of HSBC in Hong Kong is located on ABC street at the Central Market Place." 6) Most of the time, I would use the phrase "in your book", unless I was specifically writing something on the cover or on the outside of the book. I'm not sure about number 5, but hopefully that helps! Michael

    It means to bring someone or something up to the same level that everyone else is at. An example phrase would be- By discussing what happened during the night, the doctors in the morning were brought up to speed by the departing night shift doctors.
