Hello there, My name is Gethin Xtasis. I live in Las Vegas. I now work as a substitute day care teacher. I have always wanted to learn Japanese. I have been studying on my own since I was 12 the language and culture too. Sadly, with no one to talk to, I forgot it all. I got so depressed that I was not fluent and gave up for many years. I cannot afford lessons or Rosetta Stone. I am about at my wits end. I need to learn several languages for work: Spanish, German, Russian,Mandarin, and Japanese, so that I may reach out to children who cannot speak English. I was hoping to find a good teacher who does not mind working with someone who is totally broke and hopefully find a few good loyal friends from around the world. Who won't judge me based on appearances.Thanks for reading. -Gethin

    The Girl From China At work we finally have a student from China. She only speak Chinese, now I desperately want to learn that language too. For me, Chinese is very hard, the tones make a difference in wording. I am so lost, and the girl must feel lost too. We will be getting three more students, and I am sad I do not know enough to talk to them. When they cry I cannot say, "I am here, talk to me." or "I am sorry you are sad, shall I sit with you?" It's hard to watch her tears when she misses dad. I understand, but I cannot tell her so. Please help. Universe send me the way, and I will work hard to learn.

    How I learned English:
    Like every French Canadian, I learned English at school. I was nineteen years old when I dropped out and started working, until I was in my mid twenties. At that time I wasn't sure if I wanted to find another job or go back to school. Therefore, I went to Australia for a year and when I arrived, I realized one thing. I couldn't understand most of the Australian. I wasn't too bad at understanding English Canadian back home, but the Australian ''bush'' accent of my farm manager was completely different. I'm not joking! It took me about a month to be fine with it. However, it was a great experience and my listening skills improved a lot. Even if the communication was hard at the beginning. I can say that the people in Australia are some of the nicest people I have ever met in my life. I hope one day, to go back down under to visit the friends I made there.
