i can't undestand a comment on youtube video "I'm enjoying my job greatly because the school atmosphere is very casual and friendly but there is a problem. I'm fresh off the boat when it comes to teaching and my classes are very mixed in terms of individual student level." (it's an ESL teacher's phrase) I found the meaning of "to be fresh off the boat" - The phrases fresh off the boat (FOB), off the boat (OTB), banana boat (BB), or just simply boat are terms used to describe immigrants that have arrived from a foreign nation and have not yet assimilated into the host nation's culture, language, and behavior, but still continue with their ethnic ideas and practices. So the teacher feels himself like an immigrant?

The Grey Wolves I want to tell you about grey wolves. The wolves live almost in all countries. But they live only in a forest in packs of 5-11 animals. Wolves hunt other animals who live in the forests too. They also eat livestock, carrion and garbage. The Grey Wolves aren't endangered animals. A wolf is a very brave animal, sometimes it can battle with a rival much stronger. If a pack of grey wolves needs take a new place they go one after another.
