    Hello everyone! I am a Spanish native speaker looking for a language English partner. My speaking is advanced but I want to keep practicing the language. This fall, I am going to start a master's degree in this language and I would like to improve my level in general. I would prefer to talk with someone with an intermediate/advanced Spanish level, and at the moment, I am just available to talk 1 time per week. Let me know if you are interested!

    Interesting question!
    I think that it depends on what you are looking for, the place where you live (culture and traditions because these have an important effect on people's perception about how should be a relationship).
    As an example, in my country the majority of people still believe that a woman and a men must be in a romantic relationship for getting married and this is the central aim for them. Moreover, they believe in romantic love.

    I agree with the previous comment, you can use the notebook section for adding your writing task practice but even though it is an excellent idea, you should look up for corrections and feedback from an IELTS teacher because you will know your strongest and weaknees areas and then you will improve your score. You can look up for one here in Italki (I did this and I have had a significant progress).

    Good luck in your exam :)

    Describing datas for IELTS exam (Task 1) Thank you for any comment and suggestion of word/expression. (Please if you have took IELTS exam or you have experience in this test, let me know your strategies or suggestions) Thank you in advance :) The graph illustrate the age groups who were more likely to buy tickets for different types of enternteinment during some months of 2006 in three nations and what kind of device they used for getting the tickets. Overall, Australia was the country which have more consumers of tickets and desktop computer was the most common device used for buying them. First, it is clear that Australia was the main country which bought more tickets for enterntainment in both age groups. In the 25-44 years group there was around 55% of people making up opposed to Malasy which had only around 33% of consumers in this category. Then, in the group of 65 years and more, the majority of consumers of this comparasion was found in Australia with 40%. On the other hand, Malasya was again the country with the lowest percentage of clients with around 35% only. In the case of UK, they had a very similar amount of people buying tickets as Australia: in the first category (25-44) 50% and 40% in the group of elderly people. Finally, it is evident that Desktop Computer was the greater device to acquired tickets in the three nations. The main country which opted to use it was Malasya (62%) opposed to Australia (55%). The second more popular advice used was laptop and the latest was mobile phones.

    Hey Tammy!
    First, I think there are different perceptions of "being attractive" because it depends on the person! And also people change their mind as well! For example, when I was younger I used to like "attractive men" (for me) I used to focus on their apperance only. But as the time went on, I changed my preferences and other characteristics are more important for me than physical apperance.

    To sum up, do not give up and work on you own self steem! When you stop looking for someone who love and you begin building up your self-steem, You will find the perfect person for you!

    :)

    Science and Art in our society. on the next paragraphs, I discuss other's people opinions (This is a practice for IELTS exam) So, please let me know if you understand the ideas I expressed and if you have any suggestion, please share it wih me. Thank you in advance :D 1. They maintain that modern-economies cannot advance without a strong scientific base. A case in point is Mexico which have a lack of scientific researches. Consequently this has an important impact on the economy of my country and it is still an undevelop country. 2. It is argued by some people that Science has an effect on everything we do from eating to travelling. For instance, in the case of food, people can consume all types of products during all seasons of the year and this was initiated by the discoveries of Biology. Futhermore, the invention of the plane was possible with the principles of Physics. Thus, with this remarkable creation, we can travel faster and safer. 3. Some people feel that certain works of art that are produced are offensive and should be banned. Take as an example the citizens of my country who condemned the decision of allowing to mexicans artists to draw on some walls of the subway station because they considered urban art as inappropiate for the image of the city. 4. Many people think that scientists should have some involvement with artists and vici versa. Bringing these groups together would be better for society as a whole. A good example of this is when complex information from Science can be explained easier with a painting, music or statue. Thus, the understanding of ppeople of difficult scientific concepts would be improved. 5. A commonly held belief is that spending time alone in laboratories without much human contact is not very interesting. Take as an example the vast amount of movies which has spread this image. As a result, science is considered as boring career for a considerebly amount of people. 6. Some people feel that many scientific experiments are dangerous to society. There are many examples where serious mistakes have been made. A case in point is the troubling experiements with nuclear energy carried out in Chernobil which had not only negative effects on the environment but also on the health of thousand of people. As a result, the current society is more involved in avoiding that these kind of catastrophes take place again.

    Hello Estefania.
    I do not have experience doing TOEFL but I have been studying for IELTS. I Know they are different but also they have some similar characteristics. Moreover, I used to have a similar problem with reading in IELTS (time management) but I improved with a specific book for this skill. So I suggest you to focus on learning the skills requiered for the reading section, a book is the best idea. Improve and learn strategies for reading and some weeks later, you can back to TOEFL practices.

    Best wishes in your preparation! 😊

    The young generation, their role in current social problems. [This is my latest exercise of writing for IELTS. I have noticed I learn a lot with comments from this community, (thank you so much :D) so I will continue sharing my progress here. please let me know your opinion, I am pretty open to receive your suggestions about my coherence, vocabulary choices and my grammar. Thank you again!] There are those who believe younger generations have a vast amount of knowledge about some social drawbacks opposed to old people. In my view, I believe young people have more information about these issues and consequently more actions are taken to solve them. Firstly, environmental issues are well known in our society but in particular by young people. Take as an example air pollution caused by old cars. Nowadays, the fashionable trend is to opt to buy electric vehicles in most of the major cities in the world. As a result, people agree with taking more eco-friendly choices and these actions have a positive impact on environment. Another important problem is poverty which is caused by a growing population effect experienced in a considerably amount of countries. This situation cause a lack of jobs because they are not enough for people. Moreover, migration is a consequence of hardship lived daily by thousands of people in poor conditions. However, young society are more enthusiastic with being part of the solution for these difficult situations . As an example of this, donating money and bassic items for living are collected by freshman students each year in my university. These events are applied because this young generation are aware about this problem but also effective solutions are done by them. Finally, the general opinion about animals rights has changed for the current society. Because situations as animals farming, circurs and films with participation of animals are exceedingly well controlled. For instance, in my country campaingns against zoos and circus leadered -the overwhelming majority- by young participants had an important role in the condemnation of circus in my city. Thus, it is more easy to avoid violence in animals if people take action and have a fair mind. To conclude, not only the perception of young people about environmental issues, poverty and violence against animals is more fair than their ancestors but this group of people are more involved in solving these issues as well.

    IELTS TASK 1 MAP EXERCISE The exercise of this week. Feel free to comment suggestions and corrections because I learn a lot of them. Thank you in advance. :D The pictures illustrate the evolution ocurred at the sea side resort of Templeton. From 1990 to 2005. In 1990. the place was a greener zone with a vast amount of trees but during the next fifteen years , the zone experimented dramatic changes. The most noticeable is that all of the trees east of the river were cut down with some houses which were south of the school and replaced by a factory. Moreover, a supermarket was constructed south of the lake and the detached houses founded in 1990 made a way for three enormous buildings of apartments in 2005. Futher developments were the redevelopment of the railway line, which were longer from the railway station to west of it. Also, there is the presense of another transportation option for citizens: a ferry which is a great way to move to other areas effectively. Overall, both illustrations show the transformation of this place into to a major city.
