Guten Tag! I am a native English speaker looking to learn German. I want to eventually be fluent, so I'm studying hard. I'm a fairly quick learner and I put a lot of work in. I am happy to teach English in return. Let's get fluent together. :)

It was a pleasure to teach Becky. She's very kind and nice. Only with a few weeks of studying Italian her performance with basic communicative formulas was brilliant! She shows all the qualities to be a very good student: attitude, ability, perceptiveness, understanding and, above all motivation. She'll do very well! Brava!

    Hi emarbe, The best phrases to use here would be to "get around" "Getting around by car" "How to get around by bicycle" "Getting around the city on foot."

    Hi George, Both of these mean the same thing: 1) "I will get..." 2) "I will be getting..." 'Getting' is the gerund; the current form of 'to get'. To 'be' implies the doing of something right then, so we use the gerund/current form of 'getting'. Therefore: "I will do the laundry later." "I will be doing the laundry later."

    Hi Conchi, The difference between these two phrases is very, very subtle. You could use either in any context and be understood, but "until now" perhaps suggest that you are about to reveal what you remember right now, and "so far" may suggest that you may do so in the future. Examples: "I haven't studied much so far..." suggests: "I haven't studied much yet, and I may or may not begin studying soon." "I haven't studied much until now." suggests, "I wasn't studying, but now I intend to/now I am." I hope this helps!

    Hi Ekaterina,

    About paintings

    I mainly paint with oil colours. It has a malleable (flexible) this is fine, but 'flexible' is used more often in English speech.


    nature, it’s plastic and in my opinion it keeps has warmth (of a human soul) and energy (bioenergy, energy of some creation). Both 'warmth' and 'energy' are fine, but perhaps 'warmth and soul' is closer to what you're looking to say.


    I believe, no comma is needed here that in painting , put the comma here instead the most important thing for perceiving a picture in general is a combination of colors keep in mind which 'type' of English you wish to speak; I noticed you use both spellings of this word. 'Colour' is British English, and 'color' is American. American English removes the 'u' from many words ending in -our, such as 'colour', 'honour', 'harbour', etc.


    in work. Every color has its own magical force and it's own influences on the physiological and psychological processes of the person. While this isn't incorrect, it doesn't sound quite natural. Perhaps a better way to phrase it would be " [...] influences on the physiology and psychology of a person."

    Sometimes the form and the content are not so important, as just (namely) the color, the colour alone that emits waves with different impacts (sensual value). Knowing the specifics of each color, it is possible to form a certain image, to evoke certain emotions and associations. When you are using commas in a list of items or statements, the last two items should be joined by 'and' and have no comma:

    "Harry, Paul, Susan and Jane go shopping." "They bought shoes, books and food."


    The subjects of my paintings are observations from everyday life, reflections of feelings and emotions. Nautical themes prevails in my paintings, because water is a the base basis of all life on Earth and it gives energy and harmony to a human soul like nothing else.
    Pictures are like children. Here is a good use for the semi-colon ( ; ). use it between two statements, where the second is directly linked to the first:

    "Pictures are like children; you put your heart and love into them."


    You put your heart and love into it. But, perhaps, the most wonderful thing is when they take on a life of their own.

    This was a very good entry, Ekaterina. Keep up the good work!

    Yes, that's correct. "It is his" is right. "That is his car." "His house is big." Also, "It belongs to him."
