I would like to practice Italian/Spanish and help with Portuguese and English. We can talk a little bit in each language to improve together. I have a basic level of Spanish, which can help in conversation. I'm looking for Italian native people to practice Italian and English via Skype. I'm interested in culture, music, literature, sports, movies, etc... See you!

Very interesting conversation. Pleasure to teach. Watching movies and using interactive mediums will improve your English significantly. Keep doing what you're doing with reading Dracula and other amazing books in order to enhance your skills. I would recommend listening to a variety of Irish accents and become accustomed to them. I put significant emphasis on informing you not to lose the Brazilian accent and to keep it. Thank you and I hope to have a lesson with you another time, recommend to any other teachers considering.

Pedro showed great improvement in terms of pronunciation and also sentence construction. When he answers a question, he tries to use vocabulary and expressions that are not commonly used, to express himself better. He's more direct to the point and tries to be as descriptive as he can. Well done! So awesome! Stay awesome! :D :D :D :D

    Book Review – Dracula Book Review – Dracula I was afraid of Reading English books, but 2 months ago, I decided to put an end in this fear and start to read some classics of English literature. I know that classics are harder than other kinds of books, but since I only read classics of Brazilian literature, I thought that would be easier start reading things of my interest. Dracula was the fifth English book that I decided to read, because as everybody knows it is one of the biggest classics of all times. The novel is divided into letters, journals and newspaper articles. Bram Stoker shows us a story of how the characters get to know Count Dracula and their fight against him. I will not tell the story, because I guess it is common sense. However, I would like to say my thoughts about its end. The way of the author chose to write the last pages is really concise and made me think about the differences between readers of each time. I would really recommend this book to every classic lovers and to vampire story lovers too.

    Book Review – The Humbling The humbling is a book written by Philip Roth in 2009. It is a short story about an elder actor, who suffers of depression and cannot work anymore because of his sickness. Axler used to be a great actor, accustomed with the benefits of fame, but his life turned upside down when he lost his talent. After some fail trials in new plays, he decided to look for professional help. While he was admitted to the hospital, his marriage came to an end. Everything was horrible in his life and he could see just one possible solution. I will not tell how the novel ends, but all what I can say is that is a story full of twists and turns and has a sad final.

    Book Review – The Great Gatsby The great Gatsby is a classic of the American literature, written by F. Scott Fitzgerald in the 20’s. It shows New York and the fancy way of living there in that decade. The novel was written in a way that we just see the version of the narrator, a man called Nick Carraway, who is neighbor of Mr. Gatsby and directly involved with the story. Gatsby is a multi-millionaire who lives in a fancy house, has the best cars of the epoch, and receives all important people of the city in huge parties. Without any reason, Gatsby invited Nick to one of those parties beginning a friendship. During the story, Nick tells us that Gatsby was in love with his cousin and that was the reason of the sudden approximation. The book is a classic novel of the last century, so it was expected that some love story would happen, but the plot is not so simple, because it involves a lot of money, betrayal, and even death. I really recommend this book for those who like novels and for those who want to improve English. I learned many words and improved my capacity of reading in English.

    Series Review – Dexter I started watching Dexter just to improve my English, because it is a long series and I thought that would be nice to get used with the accent of each character. I decided to watch the episodes with English subtitles, so I would be able to perceive each word. The series shows the life of the character Dexter, a psychopath who works for Miami Metro Homicide as a forensic analyst. Dexter knows how to not be caught because his experience as a forensic and because his father was a police officer, then he was familiar with the methods used by the police to catch assassins. During the episodes, the authors try to humanize Dexter, bringing the fact that he had a dark background and did not know how to live a normal life. Even if he try to get a normal life, it seems to be an impossible task, because every time he meet someone he brings sadness or even death to the person’s life. Many people criticized the final season of the series, but I do not agree with them. In general, I liked the series. I did not use to like these “CSI” stuff, but Dexter surprised me in a good way.

    A minha casa

    Moro em uma pequena cidade no Equador, chamada Palora. A população de Palora é composta por duas mil pessoas. Mas aqui há um hospital, escolas e lojas. Em Palor, o chá preto é cultivado. Para os russos, o chá preto é a bebida mais importante, então estou feliz por viver aqui. Aqui nós alugamos um apartamento.

    Nosso apartamento tem dois quartos, um banheiro, uma enorme cozinha e um quarto de hóspedes (do jeito que estava escrito parecia que o quarto de hóspedes estava dentro da cozinha). Normalmente, no Equador, os apartamentos são alugados sem imobiliária. Inicialmente, nosso apartamento possuía apenas roupeiros embutidos nos quartos, armários e bancadas na cozinha. Vivemos aqui por dois anos e meio, então já temos nossos próprios móveis. Mas ainda não há cama - dormimos apenas no colchão.

    Nossa casa está localizada na rua principal da cidade, no centro. Portanto, durante o desfile, podemos observar o desempenho diretamente da janela.



    Muito bem escrito. Fiz algumas sugestões e corregi alguns erros. Se quiser ajuda com português brasileiro, estou a disposição :)

    Favela Orgânica

    Caríssimo Senhor:
    Bom dia!
    Sabendo que sua empresa pode patrocinar os programas significativos para a sociedade,hoje eu venho por meio de e-mail a apresentar nosso projeto-Favela Orgânica, ao fim de solicitar o patrocínio.
    Favela Orgânica é um projeto criado por uma cozinheira chamada Regina Tchelly, nas comunidades da Babilônia e do Chapéu Mangueira, na zona Sul do Rio. A iniciativa desse projeto, de acordo com Rina, é ensinar as pessoas da comunidade a aproveitarem integralmente os alimentos, através de soltar a imaginação para dar fins (utilizando a criatividade para aproveitar ) toda aquela comida que era considerada resto.
    Agora o projeto já se espalhou por várias comunidades do Rio, até está atingindo outros estados e outros países. Muitas pessoas já estão sendo beneficiadas por esse novo jeito orgânico de aproveitar os alimentos deliciosos, baratos e de alto valor nutricional. Por enquanto, a talentosa cozinheira está enfrentando uma dificuldade no processo de expansão desse projeto: Ela não tem um espaço adequado para tocar o projeto, para promover a capacitação para profissionais da alimentação
    Por esse motivo, eu acho que o senhor e a sua empresa podiam levar em conta o patrocínio do nosso projeto Favela Orgânica, possibilitando o aluguel de um espaço adequado para as atividades. E creio que isso possa nos ajudar e também beneficiaroutras pessoas da comunidade.
    Fico aguardo à sua resposta (Aguardo retorno)!

    Sinceramente, Antônio

    I think it's a matter of practice... maybe you need a greater immersion in the language.

    Movie Review - American Made “American Made” is a movie produced by Doug Liman in 2017. It shows the life of the American pilot Barry Seal (Tom Cruise), a man who used to work for the Medellin Cartel and for CIA at the same time during the 80’s. As we all know, Pablo Escobar, Uchoa and others Colombian drug dealers, formed the Medellin’s Cartel. By a former job, Barry Seal was a commercial pilot of the company TWA, but he received the offer to quit the job and start a new career, with the task of take pictures of Central America armies, using a small airplane. During the clandestine missions Barry met drug dealers and started fly drugs on his return flights to the USA, so he was working for United States and for drug dealers at the same time. The movie is awesome; if you have liked the series Narcos then you will enjoy it, because it shows contemporary facts. To avoid spoilers I will stop telling the story.
