NOT CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR LANGUAGE PARTNERS AS I AM FOCUSING ON LESSONS. After not getting very far with learning French and consequently forgetting most of it. I started relearning French again at the end of 2015 for UEFA Euro 2016 at I thought it would be polite to learn a bit of touristic French for the trip. As I had a proper purpose to learn French and I was not learning in the boring 'parrot method' of just repeating my teacher in school, I actually enjoyed learning it by myself so I carried on learning it. I am currently about lower intermediate at reading French, but elementary speaking and listening. I would like to get decent level listening, talking, and reading not too worried about writing at the moment. Every now and then dabble in Spanish. When I have got half decent at French, I will have to learn touristic Spanish. Interests - Playing badminton; hiking ; Oxford United supporter; running, and attending monthly Oxford Cafe Scientifique.

    They are understandable to  a native speaker of English. They might find the following  a bit confusing but they would know what you were trying to say:

    A couple of years ago I felt a little bit shy to talk in English. Now that I have acquired more knowledge and experience I feel more confident rather more time ago.

    A couple of years ago I felt a little bit shy to talk in English. Now that I have acquired more knowledge and experience I feel more confident rather more time ago   so I feel more confident than before



    Also I am not totally sure  what you was trying to say for 13, if you were trying to say the following:

    I went on time to get to school or rather I could have been a bit late.

    Or may be even:

    I left  to get to school but I was a bit late.

    the Phantom of the Opera review - corrections/discussions of word choices are welcome!

    Yesterday I went to watch  see  The (capital 'the' as it is part of the name) Phantom of the Opera in London's iconic West End. The show produced by Cameron Mackintosh is known to be the highest grossing musical of all time. However, when I first watched it three years ago, weirdly it did not strike me as anything more than a cheesy love story. But yesterday the spectacle completely blew me away from the outset. Celinde Schoenmaker in the role of Christine is absolutely stunning and has an impressive voice. Ben Forster expressed (can't think of anything better atm, any other idea?) lively the solitude and distortion that lies inside The (Capital again)Phantom who is torn  apart between keeping his love  as a  for (could use 'as' without 'a' but most people would use 'for' to give more emphasis) company and freeing her from his dark dungeon. Visually, I was awed by the staging: the candles, the chandelier, the costume, etc. The music composition and the visual representation brought the characters to life and extended the show outside of  Her Majesty's Theater   Theatre to a magical wonderland.

    I was impressed by the talent and 'bad temper' of Cameron Mackintosh when his colleague and friend came to our classroom and told us interesting anecdotes about him. He is quick-tempered; he is maverick; he is meticulous; he is a genius. Now once again, I wonder what is inside the genius's creative mind.

    Both are conjugate of "to wonder". I am wondering - present continuous. I wonder - present subjunctive.

    Yes, you are right; it should have the word "that".

    "Then the triangles are equiangular and have those angles equal the sides about which are proportional." As an English speaker I would say: The triangles are equal, they have angles equivalent in size which are (about) proportional.
