It's a common expression used in English. "I've never tried to learn any Chinese before, but we can see what happens :)" basically means that I have never tired to learn the language as of yet, but we will see what will happen or expire in many days from now. Maybe I'll learn something, maybe I will not.

You are right, there does seem to be a lot of interest. This is something I never expected. Furthermore, you are also correct about the amount of time for communication. As I have written above, I will try to make the best of my time.

I would be glad to have you as a friend. I don't email very often (I use Skype as my main way keeping in touch). If you have the program, don't hesitate to add me. My username is written at the beginning of this post.

For those interested in my offer, feel free to add me as a friend and add me on skype (my username is     dripwall). Please keep in mind however that, as it obviously appears, I have been receiving many requests and I have a limited amount of time to talk and help people out. I promise you though, I will do the best I can with the time that I have.

I am learning a forign language! French used to be my main focus, but that focus transfered on to Brazilian Portuguese. I spent two months down there last summer (their winter). I arrived not knowing a single word and left with the ability to have a basic conversation about common everyday things. I now read books, make flash cards, and mainly talk to a special someone who's native from Brazil.

Everything and almost anything interesting. I enjoy science, engineering, medicine, and recent research. I also enjoy talking about pros and cons about almost anything in life. To help improve someone's vocabulary I might talk about a specific place a coffee shop to driving in a car.

How? Are you referring to how I may help people improve their skills when using the English language? I do my best to aid others in many ways, depending on their current level and ability. For one, I try to encourage confidence and enure that the people I am helping feels comfortable. In general I put forth an effort to expand vocabulary by speaking and writing about a variety of subject and situation.

Of course I'm learning how to teach better myself. I am in no way a professional, but I'm free.

Hello rain

At this moment it is raining in my city. I need a mug the coffee...

-----------------

I changed the word 'In' to 'At' for it is more common in every day conversation. You may use the word 'in' when describing the location (in your city). Remember to add the 'ing' for verbs that are currently happening 'at this moment' :)

Just forgot to add in, my time zone at the moment is Pacific 08:00.

For all of those interested in receiving help and support, you may add me on skype!

You are also free to add me on italki as well. I'll help you whenever I'm free and able to.

besides the country being rated as the friendliest in the world, I really love it because the people are so lively and outgoing. Carnaval and football really bring out people's spirit and of course... the beaches are always nice.
