- Make certain they know the sounds of the individual letters of the English alphabet. Teach them sounds which are formed by combined letters. Teach them simple root words, then add letters to create new words. Example: at, cat, mat, sat. Teach them the meaning of the words. Create word lists with a picture attached. Put together simple sentences. Purchase, borrow, or write simple readers for them to practice. Also, have them practice writing the words and creating sentence. This is very basic but basic is the best way to start and then build.0 votedAugust 6, 20130
Perfecting my English
Hello,
I'm a 40 year-old Italian man. I registered on this website with the purpose of learning French, but I think it would also be a good thing for me to perfect my English. Many years ago I spent one year in the USA, and I have since then continued practicing English by reading and communicating on the Internet, but sometimes I still make mistakes when I write. Furthermore, since some of the people I communicate with are non-native English speakers, I sometimes use expressions that don't really belong in current English.
During the last year, however, I wrote quite often on a British chess discussion group. So, whilst indeed my original English was American English, now it probably is a mix of the two :-)
I've written this without the help of any grammar or dictionary. I would appreciate any correction, and users are welcome to correct even my slightest mistakes.
Thank you in advance0 votedAugust 6, 20131I Met Someone
Today I went to her house. I went there because I wanted to hear the message of Jesus Christ. When I left the house, I had new news. It was about being faithful, always believing, forever. I made a decision that the purpose for my life is to faithfully believe at all times, in my youth, in my future, and forever, in Jesus Christ.
I like this message, Maryolla! Contact me if you would like. I plan to be an English tutor. I would love to talk with you!
0 votedAugust 4, 20131- My Perennial Flower Garden My favorite place to spend time in is my perennial flower garden. This year the blooms have been explosive and more vibrant in color than in the past. I have tended this garden, which follows along both sides of our front sidewalk which curves in two directions when it meets the front steps, for almost twenty years. I have added new genus species annually, I have purposefully grouped certain cultivars together to create color and leaf texture contrast, and I always keep in mind as I plant new breeds the timing of the flowering. I want to make sure there are flowers in bloom throughout the season. I don't follow the standard design of putting the taller plants in the back, with the shorter plants in the front. Instead, I plant so the eye weaves in and out of the garden, exploring and discovering, resting and enjoying what it sees. Scent is also an important part of the garden. Some flowers have a more potent fragrance, with some it is very subtle. One of my favorite scents comes from the iris - not particularly sweet, yet it reminds me of my mother's flowers gardens and brings back pleasant childhood memories. Don't forget the smell of the rich loam and decaying humus which surrounds the plants. There is a richness in the scent, especially after a rain, that equals the most fragrant scent of a tea rose.August 1, 201310
