Hallo! Ich heiβe Kayla. Throughout my childhood my grandmother has told me what an amazing experience she had in Germany in the 1960s, so I have always wanted to learn more about the culture and the language. My dream is to move to Germany someday, but I want to see how dedicated I am to the learning the language on my own first. I’ve taken a few German classes in college (2014) and I’ve used Duolingo for a long time (2014-present). To improve my learning I use YouTube videos and I try to read newspaper articles, both in German. Please help me learn more!

Kayla is such a joy to teach, always enthusiastic and eager to learn. We read a text together and did an exercise, and she did really well! I look forward to our next class.

Kayla was extremely motivated and focused, and a great person to talk to. We got a lot of work done and she did really well! I really enjoyed our lesson, and look forward to the next one!

    Why in German I saw this on YouTube: "Was ist der Unterschied zwischen warum, wieso, weshalb, weswegen, darum, deshalb, und deswegen?" - Google Translate translates this to say, "What is the difference between why, why, why, why, why, why, and why?"

    Hi Menucha! It depends on what you mean by "affordable" and if you want a professional teacher or a community tutor. These are the two I use. https://www.italki.com/teacher/7199555 & https://www.italki.com/teacher/5221244

    I am learning German and I honestly didn't use the teaching portion of italki until this year because I was too scared to speak German, but I've known about italki for a few years!

    English 01

    I am going to talk about my experience of learning English. I will never forget when I decided to learn English to enjoy it. My first step was to find out what is the best way to learn English easily.
    I turned on my laptop and tried to google my question on the Net. I visited a few sites and blogs to find the best answer to start.
    Ended up, I found 4 ways to start. (I would say something like this: "I ended up finding 4 ways to start") They were:
    Buy a grammar book, buy an English movie, prepare a short English story book, and find English music on the Net.
    I was over the moon to start learning English. I <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">have </s>started to study the first lesson of the grammar book and I understood its meaning and notion. Step by step some of lessons were <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">going</s> hard and I was getting fed up and upset.
    After a few months, I quit because I couldn't understand the grammar, <s>and</s> etc. One night when I wanted to sleep <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">at night</s> I thought to myself, hey man nothing in the world can take <s>of</s> the place of persistence and determination in the world. If you work hard you'll be successful at the end.
    I got out of bed, opened a book, and started to make examples of English grammar.
    It was going well and I was starting to feel more comfortable.
    And......
    I will talk about my English experience in next notebook(02).

    If i have mistake in this page, i will be happy to help me.

    I hope this helped! I noticed you had a good amount of spelling mistakes. You may want to try googling words if you don't know how to spell them. I highlighted everything I changed. I really enjoyed reading your story!

    Yes, you can say both "description of a person" and "a person's description." :)

    How would you prefer to travel by coach or by air?

    I’ve had a lot of journeys by coach, like bus or train. I don’t want to say these forms of travelling are exhausting, but I don’t like these types of travel. I had to sit down on the firm seat for a long time and unfortunately I am used to staying up all the time when I am in the bus or like this. So I think an airplane is better than a train or bus for travel anywhere. In fact, an airplane is more convenient and comfortable for the passenger. For example, on the airplane there are many airline hostesses to serve, take care, and help tourists, but on the train there aren’t receptionists to help passengers when they have a problem. Moreover, airplanes have a good security system. For instance, airports have modern systems to take care of security of passengers. Before boarding the plane, staff will check supplies to protect from (accident: this doesn't make sense. Maybe: "Before boarding the plane, staff will check supplies to protect others from illegal items,") but the railway station staff will not check the passengers' supplies, so they can bring all types of supplies and get on a train.

    I hope this helps! I highlighted everything that I changed and made a comment on one sentence.

    Hi Guzel! There is a TV show called "House" and another one called "Untold Stories of the ER." They are both medically related. I don't know if you like veterinary shows, but there is "The Incredible Dr. Pol" and "Critter Fixers." I can't really think of any books or movies, but some of my favorite books are classics like "Pride and Prejudice" and books about horses like "Joey." And I love kids movies from Disney and Pixar. I hope this helps!

    Tenses exercise : future

    Hello,
    last week I thought I WOULD write something to improve my English, especially the future tenses.
    So I'm going to write.

    Tomorrow at 6 am I will be waking up and drinking my tea.
    In May I don't know if I will have to WAKE? early. IT DEPENDS ON IF MY JOB CONTINUES.
    In late April I will have been working for this company for 2 months. If I began this work in February, I would have been working here for 3 months.
    A bus arrives to my job at half past 7 but I prefer to ride my bike.
    I never really imagined I would work here.
    I imagined life would be different.
    The new mayor isn't to have a meeting due to sanitary issues.

    Great Job! I fixed a few things, but I was going off what sounded right as a native English speaker. I corrected some of the words' spelling, tenses, etc. I wasn't sure if you meant "wake," so I highlighted it orange. I also reworded your sentence about your job. I hope this helps! Kayla
