«Возле» имеет более книжный смысловой оттенок, «около» - более нейтральный и употребительный вариант.

does the 2d phrase refer to a speaker or to other person? because speaking of a 3d person "one of a kind" = "особенный (-ая)"/"единственный (-ая) и неповторимый (-ая)" is ok. (Also can be "один (одна) на миллион" - "one for a million") however a phrase "я особенный/ я единственный и неповторимый" will sound ambitious and silly. Same is with "I'm one of a kind", isn't it?

oh, I also faced such situation! :) a person just asks you literally "Please teach me Russian!" And you don't know where to start: grammar, alphabet or maybe culture? %) but usually people know what they want because they already learn the language. so they begin to ask specific questions - like people here, in groups. that's much easier to answer :) And as Marie-Helene says, you can just chat and thus improve your skills mutually. Because when you chat, topics come up naturally. And while you're discussing 1 topic, you repeat same words and structures again and again. So you replenish your language knowledge without cramming

Andrew is totally right, I just add some details: student of university - студентка (female) student of secondary school - ученица (female)

I added you too :)

je pense c'est mieux de montrer ton visage reel. avec le photo il est plus facile pour moi d'imaginer que nous sommes plus proches amis :)

moi, je viens de lire "Neuromancien" par William Gibson. Son genre est cyberpunk, en fait c'est un des livres qui ont defini le "visage" du genre. Si vous vous interessez en hi-tec, gadgets... et ne pouvez pas imaginer votre vie sans ordinateur - vous l'aimerez

il est tres interessant de lire les reponses.
mais je me demande quelle est la difference parmi "un livre" et "un bouquin"...
