Hi, I come from Poland and when I was 30, decided to move to Scotland. I live here from almost 3 years. I used to study English from my early years but cultural differences and variety of accents make understanding a bit more difficult. I've finished Edinburgh College and passed ESOL exam (Advanced). I'm looking for a job within my interest area and want to be as efficient in improving my language skills, as I can. I am Communication Manager and Business Development Manager, so English I speak, need to be on the highest level. I'm looking for a teacher, who can help me in making me speak as native British speakers.

    I Was A Sailor, I Was Lost In The Sea Changing the country of your living leads to many things....depend of your personality.....depend how mature you are...depend who you will find on your way... You will grow up, fast and in pain. I have just read some girl notebook entry, where she was writing about her suffering. A very natural problem. The only difference was, she was alone with it. It is hard. This state of mind deepens everything. One feels all elements, one wouldn't even notice while living in 'normal circumstances'. In the end of the road is a beautiful field, where sun is shining and one have everything what one wants. Challenging oneself will benefit. Always. Some people won't understand you, they won't accept you, quite possibly you will do the same to someone. Don't give up, you are okay, you are worth it. Find the best way for you. It calls 'being aware', not selfish. 'Our times' are strange, but where there any normal ones? Exactly. So....smile and get out of your room!

    It could mean something opposite though. You need to know the context. 'Quite good book' could mean that the book was totally terrible, but you don't want to say it. A cultural background is extremely important. This is a British book, so it could very likely be that difference in this case. 'Actually, it was quite funny really.' means that person wanted to admit that something was very funny, quite possibly to underline ones thoughts because of situation ones is in.

    A wider context would clarify the meaning. Nevertheless, it could mean that his friends are also interested within and do something, what he is interested in and does, on daily basis. Second sentence could show, that we are talking about skateboarding, but because the word 'skateboarding; is mentioned, it confused me a bit, because of iteration. It could mean something else what all of them are dealing with and they do skateboarding because of it.

    3 years since I came to Scotland I used to stick by subjects of my interests. To be honest.... you couldn't find there any other languages. But life is a mystery and I decided to move to Edinburgh at some point ... I had a variety of different reasons for that. And I must admit that this challenge, changed my life completely. Not because of the place of living, different language and job. Nevertheless, all that surprised me. But because of people I met on my way. Not these I have just got past, but these who remain with me. My friends. You can get a promotion at work, you can move to better area, you can be able to buy everything what you need, you can travel. But nothing can beat the feeling of being accepted. I read, listen and chat a lot. Now, I decided to write as often as I can to improve my writing skills. The reason for that is to be able to have a lifestyle, which gives me freedom. Simply, help me to do things making me happy. For that ability for spotless English is needed.
