I am from the United States born and raised in the beautiful sunshine state otherwise known as Florida. I love learning foreign languages. I plan on getting certified to teach English abroad soon and hopefully get out and see more of the world. I figure this is a great place to start. I speak Spanish fairly well and have studied a little bit of many other languages. I am currently studying Persian which I find to be a beautiful and fascinating language.

    People laugh in so many different ways so it is really depends on what type of laughter you are hearing to decide which description you would use. That being said, I have seen and heard all of those used at various times except peals of laughter.

    A sentence is a group of words consisting of a subject and predicate.(noun and verb) A statement can be a sentence if asserting something either verbally or written. However statement has other meaning in English. A person can make a statement without any words. i.e. She died her hair blue and pierced her ears to make a statement to her parents.(The statement being that she is independent and can make her own decisions.) Also statement can be a synonym for an bill received at regular intervals from a company. i.e. I received my bank statement or I received my phone statement.

    I would say small, medium, and large rather than small, normal, and big. This is common, at least in the United States, especially at fast food restaurants.

    A friend comes to my country

    (I'm preparing to take the first certificated exam for certification the next year and this is an exercise where I answer an email of a friend who comes is coming to visit my country. I hope that you help me with this task. Thank you).

    Dear Anne,

    Thank you for your email. I'm happy to hear you're going to visit Spain. I think the best time to come to my country is Summer because it's there are plenty of people although even though the weather is a bit hot.  In Spain it's easy to meet youth young people in the discos.  but However, I consider the best opportunity to do this is to contact to a youth club because there are a lot of young people who want to improve their English skills. Do Would you like if I contact me to connect you with a youth club of in my city? Spain is very hot in summer so you need beachwear, T-shirts, skirts and trousers. It's better not to not use bring dark clothes because of the weather. I'll I'd be very happy to join your group. What about am if I your guide you when we are visiting different cities?

    Best wishes,

    Aureli.

    Does anybody can help me to improve my english skill: speaking and writing...

    Hi everyone,
    My name is Nam. I'm working for a software company in Vietnam. At my work everyone usually comunicate talks (or speaks) in Vietnamese but sometimes we use English to communicate with our foreign partners. So I really want to improve my speaking and writing. I am usually online everyday by on skype, my nick name is: namanh1269. I hope to get find a partner who can chat with me by using in English. Thanks!

     

    Very good!

    I changed this first usage of communicate to talks and get to find only to make the sentences sound more natural.(at least to me)  The sentences would still be correct with the original words.

    Sorry if I confused you! I reread your original and my correction. Then I did a little research online. And while there are some specific instances where they are not interchangeable this isn't one of them. Either would be acceptable. I guess towards just sounded better to me.

    Should we have a free college?

    This is an essay for an important test. I wish you can raise some constructive suggestions to help me progress.

    Few will doubt the importance of education toward a society but whether the government should fund tertiary education is controversial. Critics argue that the state should not spend money in areas that only benefit a small group; however, in my opinion, the financial support towards higher education is justifiable.

    It must be noticed that there are an enormous amount of students who cannot afford the college tuition fee, especially those who come from separated and impoverished rural areas. They may be extremely brilliant and keen to further their study, but without outside help, their dream would break fall through and their hard work to earn the university admission may be futile. This is indeed a disaster, not only for the students, but also for the entire society. Given that if they could finish their study, the wealth and assets created from their intelligence and creativity will highly outweigh the tuition fee that are holding them back currently.

    Furthermore, the education funding is also a good way to bridge the income gap. Those students of low income families will have a way to get rid of their low socio-economic status by finding a decent job which is essential to in a just and civilized society.

    However, the reverse opposite point of view should never be neglected. The most obvious pitfall of a free tertiary education is that it can saddle a heavy financial burden to the state. With a limited budget, the government may find it hard to provide adequate and satisfactory public service and social welfare. While the supporting to of those needy students is reasonable and justified, the benefits of costs to (I think this better reflects what your trying to say)ordinary citizens should also be taken into serious account.

    In conclusion, although a free high education may cause a budget deficiency, it is still a necessary practice. Education is the most vital and decisive factor to a country's flourish growth and each penny we spend on it will yield more in return.
