Profile
I'm from the United States. At the moment I’m primarily studying Polish, because I live in Poland and need to learn the language. My Polish level is somewhere between A0 and A1, but I’m currently studying between two and six hours every day, so I hope it will improve quickly. I spent 11 years working in China, and sometimes like to take Chinese lessons to make sure I don't forget my language skills. Sometimes I study German as a hobby. I'm also a teacher here on italki. I specialize in conversation, vocabulary, and children’s classes. My italki teacher profile can be found here: https://www.italki.com/teacher/3469507/english I love writing stories and watching musicals.

    Hi! I’m Shannon Rose. I’ve been teaching English since 2008! In my free time, I’m a huge fan of musical theatre. I’ve seen over 100 Broadway musicals. My favorite Broadway shows are Little Shop of Horrors, Fun Home, Cats, and Be More Chill. I also like German language musicals, such as Elisabeth, Tanz der Vampire, and Rebecca. I think I bring my love of theatre into my teaching. I’ve been told that I’m very dramatic and expressive. 🎭

    Maria is correct. Here are a few other example sentences that use “register” in the same way: 1. I was so tired that I didn’t even register that my phone was ringing. 2. As Jessica walked past, she didn’t seem to register me. How strange that somebody who used to be my best friend wouldn’t so much as look in my direction! 3. The first thing I registered as I walked into the room was how cold it was. 4. My cat only registers me as a machine that gives it food.
