Are you shy and would like to practice your English fluency and pronunciation? I speak English, French, Spanish and Hindi so I can help you when you ask me a question in your own language. I understand what it's like to learn a new language. I also have a crazy sense of humor! Classes are informal and you are free to ask questions with respect to grammar and pronunciation. I am a native English speaker (international English) with 25,000 hours of teaching experience from the ages of 4 - 80.

    Hi everyone!

    I know hundreds of idioms but this one is very common:

    Beat around the bush
    Avoid saying what you mean, usually because it is uncomfortable

    Is the old way of learning better?
    Hi everyone,

    Reading out loud in your target language is a good way to practice.
    I often read out loud together with my students. We learn many new words
    and expressions.

    Have fun!

    Your comments and observations are all valid.  I speak Spanish very well and have been all over the world.  I am also a photographer.  I would like to visit Argentina to work on my new book on landscape photography.

    Is Argentina, South America a good place to visit? What would you recommend?  Any advice?  Is it safe to visit Buenos Aires?

    In countries where a full time education is available for children, it is definitely an asset to learn the basics of reading, writing and arithmetic. These skills prepare a child for their future as useful citizens and parents. However, in some countries this type of education simply doesn't exist. A child, although illiterate, can still be taught practical wisdom, which is also important for life skills. :D

    A "verge" is a decorative plant border. This is a poetic way of saying that it was in full bloom with summer flowers. :D Cheers!

    Hi Eamon,

    Unless you're under 5 years old, learning one language at a time has proven to be more efficient.   You are also less likely to give up out of frustration  :D

    Cheers! Debra

    Hi Bruna,

    I'm not your age but love to read middle-grade books!  I just finished reading one yesterday entitled:  "Look Out for the Fitzgerald-Trouts". I read a book similar to this one when I was a young person and really enjoyed it.  

    Do you like to read?

    Debra :D

    I love music.

    My favourite thing during my leisure time is listening to music. Also, I love singing as well.
    I love hip hop best. And Macklemore is my current favourite artist. I like his uplifting lyrics and flow so much. And I can listen to his songs all day long.
    But there is one thing that makes me a bit unhappy and lonely. There are no friends or people around me like him or even hip hop music. I can't communicate with anyone.


    One of my favourite ways to spend my leisure time is to listen to music.  I also love to sing!  I love hip hop music the best. Macklemore is currently my favourite artist.  I really like his uplifting lyrics and the flow of his music.  I can listen to his songs all day long.

    ... (sentence ok)

    I don't have any friends or acquaintances that like his music or even hip hop music for that matter.  I don't have anyone to share my music with.

    I love music too!  I love to listen to Bollywood tunes but no one I know in my new city is familiar with this type of music.  I am invited to a karaoke party in two weeks.  I will bring some of my favourite Bollywood dance music with me.  Let's see what happens!

    Cheers! Debra

    Present in the morning.

    This morning I received a gift just like that. About this gift of the dream of many. Now this type of transport is very popular, it is useful to go. I noticed that for many, it is a hobby or a sport. My husband collected the bike itself, ordered items to taste and combination of colors. I think that soon I will have time to experience the extreme on this bike.
    So a good start my day.

    This morning I received a gift!  Just like that!

    I've dreamt so much about getting a gift like this.  Bicycling is a very popular and useful form of transport.

    It can be used for fun or sport.  My husband picked up the bike, ordered the accessories and chose the color.  Soon I will have to practice riding my new bike!  What a great start to my day!

    (congratulations!  :D)

    Debra
