    Learning English

    Hi guys,
    It's Rômulo! I'm trying to learn English to get more job opportunities. I'm a professor, and I teach subjects like accounting and finance at three universities in Brazil. I have two sisters and four nephews. I got married last year, <s>and </s>but I(or: we) don't have any child<s>ren</s> yet. My mom's name is Elza, and my dad was called Rômulo too. <s>but </s>Unfortunately, he died when I was 3, so <s>unfortunately</s> I didn't have many experience with him. Well, if you can help me with this text, I will be very happy.
    See you!

    There are missing commas.
    One way of combining independent sentences is to use [comma] + [FANBOYS]
    However, it doesn't mean that for every we use comma FANBOYS.
    Again, we only add it for combining independent sentences.

    I.e.:
    The girl and boy are singing in the class.
    Here, [and] is used to connect two subjects not independent sentences.

    The girl is singing, and the boy is dancing.
    Here, [comma] before[and] is needed to combine two independent sentences.

    I'm taking accounting in college. Maybe, we could help each other?

    You could ignore the following below, but this is how I would say this...

    It has been two years since I started learning English. It all started back when I was talking to my friend about my job and the importance of speaking a second language. Coincidentally, he told me that he was also learning English, so we began practicing together. At the present time, I'm continuously upgrading my English language skills through reading, writing, speaking, and listening. I study by using a grammar book, and the next step I want to tackle is to improve my focus during conversations. I feel that I'm not confident enough when I speak. Sometimes, I forget the words that I want to say when I talk to my friends.

    Winter chores

    Winter<s>A lot of chores</s> accompanies a lot of chores<s>winter</s>.
    Firstly, we need to turn off the coolers, clean them, and put them aside.
    My suggestion:To begin with, we need to clean and store the coolers.

    Clean the floor and <s>put</s> lay/install the carpets <s>on</s> that were rolled and <s>wrapped</s> kept in the storage room. <—This sentence is imperative. I remove the word kept because I think saying rolled is enough. To fix this:We also need to clean the floor before laying/installing back the carpets that were rolled and kept in the storage room.
    Then, we need to pack summer clothes and unpack winter clothes.
    <s>A few days later</s>In a few days, we need to begin preparing the kerosene heaters that we mostly depend <s>on</s> <s>as a result of</s> because of the frequent power shortage <s>of</s> <s>power</s> that occurs during cold winter days.
    Conversely, we do the opposite when the summer comes.
    Sometimes, I <s>sometimes</s> envy <s>those</s> people who live in areas where the weather is moderate <s>and</s> , for they don't need to do all <s>those</s> these winter <s>works</s>chores.

    My neighbours.

    My new neighbours are good. They are an elderly couple. The husband is 70 years old, but he looks great. He is a retired aircraft designer. He loves to walk <s>with</s> their little charming dog. He doesn’t talk much. The wife is a little younger than her husband. She is kind and fun, and a bit of chatterbox. <s>Also</s> She also loves to cook. <s>They</s>Their grandchildren usually come to spend the summer with them.

    My other neighbours live<s>s</s> in a town, and they come<s> once or twice a week to see</s> to visit <s>they</s> their house once or twice a week. They got married recently. <s>He</s> The man/guy is 50 years old, and he is married for the second time. He looks happy. <s>She</s> The woman/lady is a young woman(if u used woman, then it will be: “The woman is young”, the woman will be omitted), and she looks about 30 years old. She is very plain, kind, and a keen gardener. Their house is a quite old <s>building</s>,and it requires a lot of repairs <s>works</s>. However, <s>he</s> the guy manages to fix <s>it</s> any problems very well<s>step by step</s>.

    <s>So</s> Hence, my neighbours are really <s>good,</s> good: they are quiet, polite, and <s>culture</s>kind.



    This is how I would revise everything...just some tip :)


    My new neighbours are nice. They are an elderly couple. The husband is in his 70’s, yet he still looks great. He is a retired aircraft designer. He loves to walk their adorable dog; however, he doesn’t talk that much. His wife is a bit younger than him. She is kind, funny, and chatty. She also loves cooking. Usually, their grandchildren visits to spend the summer with them.

    My other neighbours live in a town, and they come to visit their house once or twice a week. They got married recently. The guy is in his 50’s, and he is married for the second time. He looks happy and content. His wife is a young lady as she looks about in her 30’s. She is simple and kind. She is also a keen gardener. They live in a quite old house which requires a lot of repairs. Fortunately, the guy can handle and fix any problems.

    Hence, my neighbours are nice: they are friendly, quiet, and polite.

    you can use both (1) Who do you think he is? (2) Who do you think is that? (Not: Who do you think that he is) I think a little revision will be better: Sue met the man, who is mayor of the city, that Mary had been insisting for all intent and purposes. Bill, who said that yesterday might seem a little strange according to Sue, was the teacher. Even Better: According to Sue, Bill was the teacher who said that yesterday seems a little strange.

    Entrepreneurs should know that no one can survive the intense competition under market economy system through dishonest behaviors.

    The woman has a perplexed reaction upon hearing that food could possibly contain additives.

    Now is the right time that we increase awareness to "Integrity is the best policy" .
