    The difference between a ‘skill’ and an ‘ability’ is much less obvious than the difference between ‘knowledge’ and the other two. In very basic terms, abilities are natural or inbuilt whilst skills are learned behaviours. I found this on google.

    For me I would just be like Wow GG EZ. This is video game lingo for Good Game, Easily won) I would be saying it in context as the lower as in the End Of the World for humanity would be an easy win for whatever knocks it off. No point in over thinking about it.

    I agree homework is important depending on your language goals. Also, it depends on how long are you using the teacher. For example, I have found a great French teacher that I am comfortable working with. So I actually got the 5 lesson package and have a weekend class every week for the next month. So it will make sense to give me homework to see how far I am progressing each week and if the teacher's method of teaching is working for me. If the student is a 1 and done then no, it doesn't make sense to give them homework.

    In the United States WhatsApp is commonly not used. I can say most of the people I recommend Whatapp to have never heard of it. Most of the population here have smartphones and the connection is just as fast as the normal internet is. Not to mention most peoples phones have data and text, plus if they have social networks there really isn't a use for WhatsApp. I can see why it is used in more developing countries because there are no unlimited data plans like here so people are generally near a wifi hotspot using their phone.

    Depending on your level of English and how much you can understand it. I will highly recommend watching movies with subtitles or news broadcasts, maybe even starting a series like "The Walking Dead." Unlike Spanish or other languages I have noticed that the subtitles don't match up with the actual spoken language. It seems to me the character would speak Spanish from Spain but the translation in Latin America Spanish. Generally, you don't see this with English subtitles. I hope this advice can help you.

    From what I see, what most people lack are native speakers to speak with. Even with this website, one person said that he message 20 people before he messaged me and I was the only person to reply back immediately about interest in helping him.

    I go to bed normally between 12-3am and wake up at 5:45 during the week. I take naps during the day.

    I can only speak for myself, it is difficult because it's learning an entirely new alphabet. On top of that, I have to memorize how all the letters look depending on where they are in the sentence and lastly learning MSA or a dialect. Online it is being spread that there are conflicting views on whether to learn MSA or Egyptian Arabic for example. Because people don't speak in MSA they speak in their own dialect. Also, many other things.

    I can say that a lot of these stereotypes may differ depending on the region. For example, learning French in Canada vs learning French in France. I saw a comment on Reddit about a guy saying he was at a medieval-style fair and he said something in French along the lines of quick we must take the queen to the castle. No one laugh and some guy came up to him and said, your French is terrible. Also generally speaking a lot of the people I am helping on Italki come from Russia or Ukraine. So generally speaking I am well received. Also Spanish is another one. While I was in Colombia I was well received for my efforts in trying to learn Spanish.
