    They are practically the same question. For the first example, you could also extend it to say, "What level are you on?"

    Traditional Mexican Dress

    How wonderful the traditional Mexican dress is. I like embroidery and consider every embroidered piece something valuable. I found myself in love with them as I found a page on Facebook showing different styles of those dresses. I think that they are vintage and modern at the same time.

    READING AND WRITING IN ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE ( second part)

    On the other hand, writing is extremely important to the second language student since listening, speaking, and reading can complement it so naturally.
    We have some parts in the process of writing to consider: prewriting, drafting and revising/ editing.
    The first in this process (pre-writing) is essential for those learning, whose first language is not English, especially those students who are at a basic level and have a limited vocabulary that does not allow them to express their ideas.
    We have to be conscious that those learning may need assistance in topics such as vocabulary and grammatical structures to help with the improvement of their language.
    During pre-writing, we can use activities; the most common one being brainstorming, for example. In this activity, students write their own ideas according to each one's level of English. Or maybe this can be done by the teachers. We can use another activity to organize things graphically.
    The second part is drafting. At the drafting stage, students may address the different ways to begin or end a paragraph or a story using some of the notes generated during pre-writing.

    I have changed "learner" to "student" where possible as it is a very unusual and uncommon way to describe "a person who is learning". I changed "lexicon" to vocabulary for the same reason -it is a very uncommon term. I have dropped the article in front of "prewriting". You would use the article if you were saying "the pre-writing part" but otherwise, not.

    That's how I would write it.

    If I am correct, then what you are trying to say is, "Just like you, your partner is a learner" which has to be written that way (in that order). This is assuming that both sentences are trying to say the same thing.

    My daily routines

    I always get up at eight o´clock, then I have a shower, put on my clothes and before leaving home, I brush my teeth. When the weather is nice I usually go to my office walking on the promenade so I can see the beach. Every day, I have breakfast with my best friend. I start work at nine and I finish at two. I have to check my e-mail; I need to make some phone calls to the clients every day. I really love my job. After work, I always lunch with my husband and my children. Sometimes, I visit my parents, who live near my house. My husband usually cooks the dinner and I do the shopping in the supermarket. Three times a week I go to the language school to learn English. I don´t like going to bed late but sometimes I have to, to get my homework done.

    Very good.

    Yes, it is a bit vulgar but it refers to kissing having to do with sucking (tongues). A VERY vulgar expression describing kissing is "sucking face". You are aware of the expression 'suck it up and do it' which has nothing to do with kissing. So that's why it was a joke

    My first experience with this page

    Months ago I was thinking about looking for a page to practice English, using video calls, so I could practice my English and help others to improve their Spanish.

    Last week I started an intensive English course. I was so excited that I wanted to practice all weekend. So I was watching videos on YouTube, and that's where I heard about italki. I stopped the video and quickly signed up on this page! I'm so excited because I wanted something to help practice my English. Because the course I've just started is only at a basic level, I can't practice English very much with my course partners; and it's better here because there are native English speakers. I'm so happy when technology achieves things like that, things that change the way people learn, making the knowledge more accessible and effective -- better communication.

    That's how I would write it. I hope this helps

    It means, 'What experience am I going to have' or 'what sort of trouble could I have'? When you use this phrase it usually implies that you think you are in trouble or that something very unexpected or unwanted could happen to you; something bigger than you expected. "What had I got myself into?" is a similar phrase (as in, "get into trouble")

    It means (doing something) without practice, without preparation. e.g. He just sang the song off the cuff!

    It means: How long can you stay there (before the review)? In other words, can you stay for 1 year? Or can you stay a little longer? They want to know if you can commit to a minimum amount of time or if you are just going to leave after a short time.
