I'm a native speaker of German and proficient in English. Most people are surprised when they find out that I'm not a native speaker. I spent a lot of time focusing on accent training (vowel sounds etc.) and over time I gradually lost my German accent. If improving your English accent is at the top of your priority list (or German for that matter) I may be able to help you. I can also help you out with colloquial phrases, slang and/or traditional grammar. I'm inquisitive by nature and thus have acquired a wealth of knowledge over the last 2 years which I'm excited to share with you. I'm considering Japanese as my 3rd language so if you are from Japan and interested in English/German do not hesitate to contact me.

    Nothing can prepare you. That’s the reality. You just have to do it. You have to immerse yourself and talk to others in English. And if you’re observant (assuming you’re going to talk to native speakers there) you can pick up things the way a native speaker says them. Until then, you could just simply Skype/Zoom with other native English speakers to relief your anxiety. But like I said, nothing will prepare you for the real thing.

    The first one is simply redundant and may even be incorrect. You’re saying you’re in the process of not doing something. I mean that is implied when you’re not doing something. Or you say you’re not gonna be able to so xyz until a certain day, then the listener knows you are in the active process or not. doing that certain task. Why not say “I won’t get to it until Tuesday” or “ I may not be able to do this until Tuesday” or “I don’t think I’ll be able to do this until Tuesday”. There’s many ways of saying this very succinctly and casually. Like I always say don’t make it too complicated.

    The difference lies in the way the word 'to' is used. It can either be a preposition, in which case you'd use the gerund form of a verb or as an infinitive marker (base form of a verb e.g. to eat, to play etc.) This is a tricky topic and it requires some research. A simple answer won't make you understand that concept. You have to develop a feeling for it.

    I thought this whole answer section is supposed to be for specific questions that can not be addressed with a simple google search. https://www.google.com/search?q=difference+dress+and+gown&oq=difference+dress+vs+gown&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0.4286j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

    The first one is the formal way of saying it and used in letters and emails and such and the second way is the informal way. Never use the second one in a formal setting.

    The first one is a more poetic way of saying it. Otherwise, they're the same.

    We need a specific context. There are so many ways to express 'high quality' such as 'top-notch' or 'cream of the crop'. But in all seriousness why do you not use Google? https://www.google.com/search?q=words+to+express+high+quality&oq=words+to+express+high+quality+&aqs=chrome..69i57.3500j0j9&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

    The words are synonyms. The word improve is a verb and the word better is a verb and an adjective. if you want to use them as verbs, you can use them interchangeably. I want to better myself. I want to improve myself.

    In the first two cases, one sentence just omits the implicit word 'office'. The second two sentences specify a location you have to say 'dentist's' or 'dentist's office. Why is that? Because the word 'at' specifies the location and the location is the dentist's OFFICE or PRACTICE. In English things are implied by context. So if you say 'Peter is at the dentist's' everyone knows that you mean to say 'at the dentist's office'.

    He is so slow though.  I don't think that;s natural. He slowed it down for everyone to understsand and that's actually the wrong approach. If you get used to that you will have enermous problems to understsand people in daily life.
