My name is Paul. I am 29 years old. I live in Utah, in the United States of America. I am an Internet Marketing Manager. I would love to chat with anyone speaking Russian. I don't typically have the time for video calls but I love to chat and would love to help anyone learning to speak English. I am slowly learning Russian and would love to do some coaching and learning. Feel free to send me a message any time.

    "This" is for describing a single item or items that cannot be counted (like sand) in your possession. "These" is for multiple items also in your possession. "That" is for a single item that you do not possess. "Those" is for multiple items that you do not possess. This stick. These marbles. That car. Also used like This is. These are. That is. Those are. Hopefully that makes sense.
