We had a good first session Leonardo. We had an enjoyable talk and you spoke well for the hour. Remember to work on your numbers and the forming of the past tenses. I look forward to hearing from you again.

    A entonação de português

    A entonação de português sempre é um dúvida para mim.Quando leio um artigo,particularmente,que há muitas palavras técnicas,não sabia suas entonações.Depois de conversar com um dos  meus amigos, concluo que: Primeiro, penso que se você não entende este artigo,não é possível conseguir a entonação certa. Segundo, eu acho que pessoas diferentes têm sotaques diferentes,uma pessoa gostaria de falar assim, mas outras pessoas preferem formas diferentes. É totalmente normal!
    De qualquer maneira, se vou progredir em português ,tenho que ouvir mais, ler mais e modelar e conversar mais com nativos.

    Abstract of my article about startups... ABSTRACT The current scenario of performance of organizations has never been more dynamic. The need to establish processes increasingly faster has never been present in many sectors of society today. If everything today is influenced by constant acceleration, the process of creation and development organizations could not be excluded. From this perspective there is a new organization model, the startups. With his ingenuity, adaptability to change, organizational structure and great potential for financial scalability, these companies are gaining more importance in the market. In this new model, the question arises as how these organizations give meaning to reality may differ from the traditional model of organization? Search through this work identify cultural aspects arise in the organizational environment, bringing as the environment capital of Ceará, Fortaleza. Therefore, we conducted semi-structured interviews with startup founders who were also exercising management positions in them. Within the three-dimensional structure of the survey were analyzed: founders, bringing profile characteristics that key piece to the formation of organizational, startup, where they were raised aspects of the formation of the organization, and finally, the day-to-day where the system of socialization is analyzed. The features present in each of the dimensions are depicted in chapter Results bringing a perspective on the cultural characteristics of startups that are reflected through their managers.

My love for each of my friends , especially for my girlfriend and my family showed the best thing that I can have this world ... This year left marks, scars, it's calls memories ... I graduated , I traveled , I made friends across the world , I found myself , I lost myself , I loved , come out, I went to party , I drank , I talked , I cried , I laughed , I played a lot, I worked , I worked hard, I share secrets , I danced , I exaggerate, I hated, I shared , and I lived unique moments ... everything was possible because I had friends by my side , with which just not divided or nor seen life go , but multiplied joys and we lived life as best she can be lived ... And that's what I wish for all my friends is, that 2014 will special like 2013 was ... It's full of scars that are worth the time to be carry to the end of your life and ... if by chance , the destiny and the world not allow we talk again and pass away in a long time without speaking , you know that I have the hope "that tomorrow will be better than today" is to fuel the friendship and the moments of their lives you shared me ... Thank you very much !

    Sandra, é bom reforçar que devido as proporções gigantescas que o Brasil possui existem expressões que são usadas em algumas regiões e que não fazem sentido em outras. Por exemplo, no Ceará e em alguns estados do nordeste usa-se a expressão "cabra" ou "macho" no sentido de "guy", ja no sul, essa expressão não é utilizada. "Arretado" seria algo extremamente bom - like Amazing Então dependendo da região do Brasil que você estiver, podera haver algumas expressões que nao fazem sentido nesse local, por que são de uso de outra região.

    My first class on Italki Today I has my first class on Italki, my teacher, Jony, a young man, British and by the way, very polide like a other British teacher with I has class on New Zealand. We talked about my life, my work and my plans to future, it's a form to identifity my English level. He was very surprise with the price of a graduate party in Brazil, and he told for me about a difficult about pronunciation sounds when he teaching english for different peoples. Brazilians have a difficult diferent of Chineses, for example. Near to finish the class, he recommended for me to study hard numbers, because I need to think more quick, and study past tense, because sometimes I'm use the present, and turn my conversation confuse. That's it, I think is a good class and I recommended Jony for English teacher. http://www.italki.com/teacher/1299882 <----- Jony's profile

    I think every people have a thing to learn for other people. For example, my english level is basic, and is very difficulty for me write a answer for your question, but when I'm try, I'm help myself and you helps me, in the moment of you write this question.

    Sorry for the english wrong!
    Thank you for the question!
