Samara was an excellent student, she did very well with the TOEFL writing assignments I gave her. She expressed her arguments clearly, persuasively, and used some good advanced vocabulary. Keep up your diligent studies!

    Holla Isaac

    Yo voy hacer el teste en lo proximo mes. Yo tengo algunos sites que puden te ayudar. 

    The official website from ETS (the organization that applies the exam) is the best one, of course.

    1st:  https://www.ets.org/toefl/ibt/prepare ( At the end of the page you'll find free sources where you can have a good practice. I recommend you to start with that official material first because they are more accurate)

    On that same website there are some preparation books, I would recommend the official guide for the toefl ibt. It is the most complete one and it has a cd program with three simulated tests. 

    2nd: https://magoosh.com/toefl/ This one is also good. Somewhere on the website you can find a pdf with a quick practice test and explanations. They also cover the four sections with tips and links for other resources.

    3rd: http://www.toeflresources.com/ This is the best for the writing section. They have a bunch of sample essays so it is good to compare with your  own essays. Also is good as list of essay topics.

    Declaraçoes Aleatórias sobre o livro Matadouro Cinco de Kurt Vonnegut

    Para praticar gramática de B2 PT-PT (tempos verbais conjuntivos e situações que são *quase* conjuntivas com asterisco)

    Acho que este livro é o melhor livro do Kurt Vonnegut *
    Não acho que exista um livro melhor livro dele.
    Há quem digam que "Bluebeard" é melhor, mas eles são loucos.
    Quer concordes quer não, é um dos melhores livros americano desde sempre. ("de todos os tempos" ficaria melhor"

    É possível que seja considerado um clássico

    É curto. Portanto é possível lê-lo em um dia. *
    Oxalá que não o escritor não morresse. (não entendi o sentido)
    Os Tralfamadoreans levou levaram o Billy a uma um zoológico que fique ficava no seu planeta.
    O Billy tinha visitado o zoológico de Ilium que fica no seu próprio planeta. *
    Colocaram o Billy num numa gaiola com a Montana e disseram-lhe "façam o que fizerem, não mas não conseguirão fugir"
    "Vocês são prisioneiros mas aqui no na gaiola podem fazer o que querem quiserem"
    Trataram-nos como se fossemos animais de estimação.
    Se pudessemos fugir, teriamos fugido. (Como você escreveu "Trataram-NOS" então você deve estar falando de "nós", então a conjugação fica "pudessemos, fossemos, etc)
    Uma garda avisou-os: "sugiro que não se preocupem porque podemos ver o passado e o futuro, e sabemos que nunca termina. Este momento é, foi, e será para a eternidade"

    Billy pensei (você é Billy? Se não fica "Billy pensou") "Logo que volte voltar a minha terra, vou buscar a minha mulher. Mas tenho dúvidas que veja se vou ver a minha terra mais uma vez"
    "Sou desligado no tempo" disse o Billy "Faço viagens ao passado e ao futuro. E sempre que regressar ao a destruição do Dresden vou ouvir as canções dos pássaros"
    O Billy está a fazdr fazer o seu discurso, ao a fim de que seja atirado por o seu inimigo.
    Sabe que isto acontecerá mas também sabem que não é possível evitá-lo *

    Is this sentence correct? "She is not worried about me doing well on the test"? Is this sentence correct? Can I use it when writing formal English? What would be another option? Do I need to add any comma?

    Não estudei muito hoje. Bom, não é verdade mas eu não fiz as coisas que eu queria fazer, especificamente o Mimic Method. Devo começar aprender as músicas porque acho que me ajudaria muito com a pronunciação. Agendei uma outra aula na terça-feira. Amanhã achará escreverei para no notebook caderno.

    Bons artistas para você ouvir são:

    -Tom Jobin

    -Zé ramalho

    -Legião urbana

    Actually there are many options for you to listen. Brazilian music is amazing! You will enjoy it a lot :D

    If you want someone to correct your writing we can exchange corrections, I'm practicing my writing too (in English of course)

    see ya!

    Começando a entender o Português

    Conheci um brasileiro hoje e entendi tudo o que ele estava dizendo! :) Eu estava fiquei tão feliz!
    Ele primeiro disse isso ao meu amigo: Você não pode falar português! E então meu amigo disse: "what in the world are you saying?" E eu disse: "he said 'you can't speak Portuguese'". E então, o brasileiro me perguntou: "você pode falar português?" Eu disse: "Um pouco..." E então ele disse: "que legal! tudo bem?" Eu disse "tudo bem!" Eu perguntei "are you from Brazil? Ele primeiro me disse: "Sim!-- não. Meu pai fala português. Minha família são é paulista. Fiquei sem palavras porque não sabia o que eram paulistas. Então ele disse "São Paulo." Então eu disse "Oh!"


    Parabéns! ^^

    Would you like to exchange writing corrections? Hello I'm a portuguese native speaker and I know that the most difficult part when learning a new language is writing. I'm looking for someone who can review my written English and I will review your Portuguese! We don't need to meet on skype or anything like that, just through email or italki in order to save time. Message me and we can review each other's writing sample just to know whether we liked both corrections or not.

    Agree/disagree Students, not teachers or administrators, should be in control of their own education It is important to know what to study and which area is the best, but should students decide by their own? In my opinion, students should let teachers and administrators do it. Those professionals are doing that job for a long time thus, they know what is best. The first reason that I disagree to let students be in control of their own studies is that students need to learn first. A student do not know what he need to learn, therefore it is not possible to build his own schedule. Knowing the content of each subject is important to build a educational schedule and the best people to do that is the teacher. Each teacher of each subject may gather together and discuss about the best way to teach. Another reason is that teachers and administrators know what they are doing. A college degree is necessary in order to become a teacher or school administrator. Consenquently they must have had pedagogical classes, and learned how to apply inside the classroom. It is their job, so they are more capable than a student. Task 2 writing section of toefl test: Finally, students should concentrate in their studies. To build a educational program and to find everything you need to learn, takes a long time. Specially, if they do not know where to start. In that way, students will waste their time to search and build their own schedule while they could just let a teacher do it and concentrate in their role; learning. Even if they are unhappy with the way regular schools control every content, maybe choosing another school or institutions that let you build your classes, will be a good alternative. Considering all those points, I conclude that even if students want to be free to control their own students they should ask a professional to that in their place. By doing so, they will do a good and focused learning process.
