    What news show in the US has the largest audience [or "most viewers"] and the most current and important news? I'm not referring to channels that are exclusively news channels, like Fox News, CNN News, NBC News, BBC News, CBS News, etc.... I'm referring to channels that offer a wide range of programs, including news.

    Thanks, but this doesn't really help students find me. One of the subjects I teach is Legal English. I suspect I'm one of the few teachers on italki who teaches this. If you search "Legal English" on italki, you don't find me (unless italki fixed this)! This, of course, makes absolutely no sense. I have a law degree and used to be a lawyer in the U.S. I've taught many Legal English courses on italki. I just finished my Master of Arts in Teaching English as a Foreign Language at the American University of Armenia and my capstone involved designing a curriculum for a Legal English class. You'd think that I'd appear in the search results for "Legal English" teachers on italki, but I don't (again, unless italki fixed this). Oddly enough, most, if not all, of the teachers who do appear in the search results are teachers who do NOT teach Legal English. Go figure!

    Anyhow, if you're looking for a Legal English teacher (or Business English, IELTS, TOEFL, Conversational English, General English teacher), this is my italki profile: https://www.italki.com/teacher/1377283?ref=1377283x

    IELTS v. TOEFL
    Students: Do you prefer the IELTS or the TOEFL? Why?

    Teachers: Do you prefer the IELTS or the TOEFL? Why?

    Although I'm from the United States, I prefer the IELTS. I think the TOEFL is too long and I think the speaking section is just strange (speaking to a computer rather than a person).

    New TOEFL v. Old TOEFL
    There were some serious changes to the TOEFL last year.

    If you have taken both versions of the TOEFL, which did you prefer? Why?

    If you teach TOEFL preparation, what materials do you use to prepare students for the most recent version of the TOEFL?

    The definite article in Eastern Armenian
    I know that the definite article is placed at the end of nouns in Armenian. I also know the two forms of the article in the Armenian script. I just don't understand when to use the definite article in Armenian as it is used way more in Armenian than it is in English. How do you determine if you need to use the definite article in Armenian?

    Legal English Teachers on italki
    Are there any other italki teachers who teach Legal English? I think there is at least one other Legal English teacher on italki. Anyhow, I just searched "Legal English" on italki and 42 teachers popped up, but I don't think any of them actually teach Legal English. Oddly enough, I was not listed and I actually DO teach Legal English. If you do teach Legal English, please let me know if you appear in the search result. I just entered "Legal English" - I didn't use any other filters.

    I'm from the United States, but I live in Armenia now. I'm a dual citizen. We do not have compulsory military service in the United States, but I did serve in the United States Navy Reserve. I was a Personnelman (that rating does not even exist anymore), which meant I mainly just typed and filed documents. Military service is required of males in Armenia, but I'm over the age requirement, so I do not have to serve.

    In general, I'm against mandatory military service. Armenia, however, has an ongoing conflict with Azerbaijan, so unfortunately, I think it has to require some of its citizens to serve in the military. I really wish the two countries could resolve their differences, but I think that is pretty much impossible.

    IELTS speaking question
    It's been slower than usual on italki given italki's change to the search algorithm, so I thought I'd take the unwanted free time to ask a question about teaching IELTS speaking and writing. This question is about IELTS speaking. If the student does not have an answer to a question (especially for part 2), can he or she modify the question and answer it? To give you an example, part 2 asked the student to talk about a teacher he disliked. My student liked all his teachers - he said he never had a bad teacher! I've heard or read somewhere that in a situation like this, the student can choose to change the question slightly and talk about a teacher he really liked. Honestly, I don't remember where I heard or read that, but is it true? Thanks.

    TOEFL Speaking
    It's been a little slow on italki due to the algorithm changes, so I thought I'd take the time to look for TOEFL material as I teach TOEFL preparation. As you probably know, the format of the TOEFL changed last year. I normally just help students prepare for the speaking and writing part of the test. The speaking part now has four rather than six questions. Does anyone have any material regarding the new version of the speaking test, including information regarding scoring? Thanks.
