Hi guys, my name's Andrea and I've been a private English teacher, and Italian to foreigners, for more than 15 years . I've got strong roots and links with the U.K. and Ireland so my English tends to be the standard British English but I'm also very open to teaching idioms, accents and grammar of the USA one. I like to tailor make the lessons and courses according to the student needs and create with him/her a a bond that goes beyond the pure and simple relationship teacher/student since I think this can also be vital in the growth of his/her English. Learning while having good time or being at ease I reckon it's the key! Regarding qualifications, experiences, etc we all seem to have them :) so it's just matter of booking a lesson with me to get an idea of what I'm talking about, "less (words) is more" someone said! ;) See you soon then, Andrea

    Hi Nooonoi, in this case, it means: What a strange/surprising thing you have just said "but", I love it. Let's make some X'mas cookies! Ps remember in the first sentence that the s disappears in the question with does ! ;) What does "What a thing to say..." mean?

    Foreigners shouldn't defy the law. That's all. I think everyone should keep that in mind while visiting other countries.

    Ciao Sarina e complimenti per il tuo italiano e soprattutto (se l'articola parla di te) per come hai affrontato e combattuto da vincitrice nella tua vita!!

    Mi ricordo quando avevo 15 anni e studiavo nel liceo, i miei genitori erano separati, non potevo accettare quest’evento imprevisto.
    Mia madre dopo essersi separata, ha deciso(decise) di andare in Germania senza di me e mio fratello.
    A quel tempo mio fratello aveva 4 anni quindi dovevo prendermi cura di lui e fare molti lavori come cucinare, pulire la casa ecc,ecc e contemporaneamente andare a scuola e studiare molto seriamente per finire il mio liceo.
    La vita era molto dura per me e c’erano molte differenze tra la mia vita e i miei amici. Ero sicura che tutte queste differenze fossero dovute alla mancanza di mia madre nella nostra vita.
    Sapevo che per affrontare questa crisi nella mia vita e prendermi cura di mio fratello, dovevo cercare di essere forte.
    Così ho cominciato(cominciai) a fare sport regolamente perché lo sport mi aiutava per mantenermi in salute dal punto di vista mentale e fisico.
    Studiavo anche molto seriamente e fortunatamente sono riuscita ad entrare nella facoltà di odontoiatria.
    Sebbene sono sicura che se mia madre fosse rimasta nella mia vita sarebbe stato tutto più facile, sono anche certa che in quel caso io non sarei diventata così forte.
    Adesso posso dire che la partenza di mia madre, è stata fondamentalte nella mia vita per diventare così indipendente.
    Sebbene a volte eventi gli imprevisti della vita possano essere frustranti, se troviamo però i modi giusti per affrontarli, possiamo trasformarli in grandi opportunità per aver poi successo.

    Hi Petr, I have to be honest..it's quite difficult to understand anything you say, sorry. Pronunciation in English is quite important and the problems arise especially with vowels and words of common origin ,French/Latin. But don't worry, there is a solution..practice, practice, practice...that's it! :)

    Hi Kimon, 'that's what you call as a close thing' is an unpleasant, dangerous event or outcome that one narrowly avoids Ex She had a close thing, but she knew when she accepted this position that there would be risks.

    HI Sunseeker666 I get/got (have) married would be used to mean the act of getting married and having a wedding whilst I have been married is used to mean the continued act of marriage. So here the right sentence would be: he got married 10 years ago. And yes, the present perfect continuous usually emphasizes duration, or the amount of time that an action has been taking place but sometimes there's really no difference in meaning the case with verbs such as 'live', 'work' and 'study':

    Hi Mantay,
    the only "secret" is practice, practice, practice..just like doing sport. The more you practice and exercise the better you'll get at it. Don't forget that the tongue is a muscle! ;)
