I'm a student from England looking to improve my French and Russian. I studied French for 8 years at school but haven't spoken it for 5 years so have forgotten a lot of vocabulary. I can read reasonably well (for example, I can understand more than the gist of most news articles written in French) but would like to become proficient at holding a conversation on any topic. I have also been studying Russian for 3 years now, but am really bad at it! I have a very limited vocabulary and usually get the grammar completely wrong. I'm looking for language exchange partners who speak either French or Russian and am willing to help people who wish to learn English.

    Subject: To-do-list

    Hi Linda,

    I hope you are well. As agreed here is today's and tomorrow's to-do-list. Do not hesitate to ask me any query questions.
    Today firstly it would be very useful if you could answer Mr Bradlaw’s letter concerning the next week’s appointment. Our CEO could receive him between 14 pm and 17 pm. Secondly could you update our customer database by adding the latest information newest?

    About tomorrow’s, work, the urgency is call back Mrs Jarvell to plan a new appointment to in 2 weeks. Then the photocopier is has again broken down so could you report this to the maintenance company? You also have to write Tanby ltd’s contract and check if you have some time Friday afternoon to receive the candidate to for the accounting officer job. If you are available feel free to contact him.

    Lastly I have a personal query to for you. I booked an appointment to for the dentist next Wednesday so could you replace me this day ? We will arrange together to find a day when I will replace you in return.

    Hope to hearing from you,
    Cheers.

    Me and my job.

    I am a recruiter. It means that I am looking for good specialists for our company. The best way to find some specialists is through the internet. It makes my job much easier. I just use some special resources, and people, who is are interested in this the job send me a resume or call me. Then I invite a candidate in our office and make a dialog about himself interview him/her (his education, his last job, his family). It is the most important part of my job, because I must make my opinion about a person in 10-20 minutes. I am not a specialist in all spheres areas  (maths, engineering, art etc.), but I should understand is whether this specialist is successful in his profession. If I think this is a perspective prospective candidate, I send him to the head of his future department.
    I think it is not easy difficult to find a job, because not every recruiter is good in his shere area, but his opinion sometimes can close the door in front of you in a good company.

    <em>Just one minor correction to add to those above:</em>

     

    The ways to protect animals and plants

    Our planet is not safe place for animals and plants. Thousand of species have become extinct and many more are now endangered.
    One of the main treats to the survival of many plants and animals is idustrialisation. This causes pollution and acid rain, which destroy forests and harm many species of plant.
    Another treats is man! We are destroying the animals natural habitats and polluting environment so there is nowhere for them to live or find food. We need to do something fast before it is too late for them.
    Firstly, I think we can try to clean up our environment. The less pollution we produce, the more chance animals have of surviving.
    Another solution is to create more national parks and conservation areas. This would be allow animals to live and breed safely in their natural habitats. As a result, their numbers would increase and species would not die out.
    In conclusion, there are many ways to make our world a batter better place for animals and plants. We all need to do whatever we can!

    My problem.

    I have not been learning English for not a long time, maybe for 4 months. I began from by learning grammar rules, verb tenses. But I understand now that I made a huge mistake. Listening and understanding of the language are most important. Well, I can write, read, speak (worse than writting writing and reading) a little bit now but I don't understand when someone talks to me. It's my problem at the moment. So if you started to learn some foreign language listening before to study of grammar.
    So if you could help me, feel free to contact me. In return I'll help you to improve your Russian skills.

     

    So if you started to learn some foreign language listening before to study of grammar.  Do you mean "So if you start learning a foreign language, begin by listening before studying grammar"?

    <em>Your English is very good for someone who has only been studying it for 4 months!</em>
