Jolyn est une élève très dédiée, motivée et patiente. On a eu une très bonne leçon aujourd'hui même si la connection n'était pas aussi bonne que d'habitude.

    I finally figured it out.  I was confused by the online version and the download version, the combination with Microsoft email, etc.  I know this isn't language related, but it is iTalki related so thanks for your patience.  All the best to you language learners!!!

    Trouble with new Skype (on my new Mac OS Sierra)

    Hi all,

    I love using iTalki but now I am concerned.  I am having trouble with Skype.  I have a new computer and made a new account and for some reason am having trouble. I am able to contact people and exchange written messages, and see missed calls, but the actual call doesn't seem to get placed (or we don't hear it) and we can't video or audio communicate.  Ideas???   

    (Should I ask my teacher's to use something like FaceTime, or does someone have help for me.  I searched for help online.  I got advice to download an older version, but when I did that, I get a message from my computer that I don't have the available application to open it.)

    Hi there,  Josh did a great job of explaining.  I would just add that I would encourage you to try to integrate one or two of the "regard" words into your understanding/usage for now and really get to know how to use those ones correctly.  It will help with the frustration. Don't do it all at once.  I would suggest using the highest frequency ones.

    You might start with "regardless".  Just get to know how to use "regardless".  You can google sentences with the word regardless in them. And just practice using it.  When you know that one well, add another one.


    Here are some examples from this website http://www.manythings.org/sentences/words/regardless/1.html

    <ul class="controls" style="margin: 1em 1em 1em 2em; padding: 0px; list-style: none; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;"><li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.5em; padding: 0px; list-style: disc outside; font-size: 1.4em;">I'll do that regardless of the consequences.</li><li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.5em; padding: 0px; list-style: disc outside; font-size: 1.4em;">Tom intends to go regardless of the weather. </li><li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.5em; padding: 0px; list-style: disc outside; font-size: 1.4em;">I'm going out tonight, regardless.</li></ul>

    Merci, Maurice pour ton opinion!  J'ai du choisir de louer or blâmer, et j'ai choisi de louer.  Il me semble que les starbucks chez moi ne sont pas si fréquentés que celles-ci chez-toi . . . et j'aime le café, bien sûr, machiato de caramel . . . et, malheureusement, chez moi à Canada, nous somme tous très occupées, et nous ne prenons jamais une après-midi pour bavarder . . . .  Merci encore pour ta participation

    Aimes-tu le Starbucks? Déteste-tu le Starbucks? (J'ai besoin d'aide pour mon discours.)

    Je dois écrire/présenter un discours en regard de Starbucks, louer ou blamer.  J'ai choisi de le louer (parce que j'aime le Starbucks), mais pour mon discours je dois donner trois points positifs (et les discuter), et je dois réfuter trois points négatifs.  (Je suis les cours dans l'université Saint Boniface pour améliorer mon français . . . je suis niveau intermédiaire.)  N’importe quelles idées/phrases/opinions vont m'aider pour planifier et écrire mon discours. Merci!

    Nice to meet you

    My name's Gabriella. I'm 37 years old. I'm married and  I am a mom. I like reading (fantasy, above all),listening to music and travelling (a lot!). In the last trip my husband and I went to Tenerife with our young child.

    For the first time she saw the sea... she was very excited. In this trip we met a lot of interesting people: from boys and girl (that in Tenerife seeking fortune ? I don't understand what you are trying to say with this phrase)  to retirees that were enjoying a well deserved rest.

    As Always,  when we travel, we returned with many new and special memories.


    Sounds like a fun trip, Gabriella.  And nice English!
