    I agree with many of the posters here. I am from the UK and I will always teach the way I speak which is British English but it really does not matter. The difference is not as big as many learners think and the way English is nowadays, most interactions are between non-native speakers. Therefore being clear in your pronunciation and presenting things in a logical way are more important.

    'cost of + SOMETHING' is natural. E.g. the cost of apples has gone up. OR The cost of living in this city is too expensive. The gerund (-ing) also works here.

    In this 'to' is a collocation of extending. The ban is being extended to bulls and bullocks, not just bulls.

    Official lesson requests will have a set time which you as the teacher click to accept. I guess what you have are just enquiries using the message system.

    ease or adversity

    As a Chinese ancient saying goes, survive in adversity, die in ease. It is saying that you could only go through different difficulties of living after you faced many adversities. If you do not, you will, be like a flower in a warm greenhouse, die immediately after explosure exposure to nature circumstance.
    I totally agree with this saying. I think adversities draw amounts of colors on pictures of your life*. Without training in these miseries, without post-traumatic growth, people are easily become naive, indifferent, arrogant and greedy. I've seen many of these types of persons people around me. I think adversities could make people humble, respecting life and full of sympathy.


    *I think I understand the phrase in blue but it sounds a bit strange, try to consider alternatives e.g. 'adversities leave an impression on people'


    Also 'adversities' is normally uncountable so written as 'adversity'

    Forth Toefl essay ( I will take toefl on saturday)

    In some countries, teenagers have jobs while they are still students. Do you think this is a good idea? Support your opinion by using specific reasons and details.

    When I was a teenager, I had the experience of have having a part-time job, which was very good to me. Moreover, I had saw  have seen some of my friends spend their free time with non-productive things. I think that have having a job while a teenager still is still a student can be a nice idea for the reasons that I will explain in the following essay.
    Firstly, I think that work as a teenager student is great to grown in a more focused way. I worked two years in a law office while I still was still in High School. This experience was very important to me because I had to become a more responsible person. In addition, the learnings that I had things I learnt were so interesting that I choice chose to get a degree in Law. The responsibility that I got in at such a so young age was so significant for the reason that I started to see the life in a very more mature way and so, I begin began to be a more hard-working person to achieve my goals. I know that I would not have passed with honours on my university without have having learnt to be more focused and responsible thanks to my job.
    Secondly, teenagers used to do some non-productive things and to have a work can to guide them to have a more productive time. Before I had had my job, I used to spend a lot of time playing silly games on the internet, which had not taught me anything. Afterwards, the legislation of my country imposed some conditions to allow the teenagers to work, like have having the right of a limited work hours for do not so as not to harm my school time, for example. Therefore, I had worked in comfortable conditions and nobody is forced to work as a teen, so it is an option that does not prejudice anyone.
    In conclusion, I think that allowing the teenagers student work is a very nice idea because possibility that a teen can have a change to developing in a more mature and responsible way. Furthermore, a part-time job allows that the a teenagers can to use his their free-time in a more productive way.
