Profile
Well, I'm really hoping to learn Spanish through this site, and what I can do for somebody is help them learn English, although I am not a native speaker, but I am a teacher of English.
Also, Serbian is my only mother tongue, but I put English as well, because I have been a teacher for several years now, and I'm doing my master's, and I only had a choice between that and what seemed to be FC or whatever...

- It really depends on when it happened. The first one means that the game has just been postponed, while the second may be about yesterday, or even a few days, month, years ago. They are both correct in terms of tenses, but in the second one the game is the subject, rather than the object i.e. in the passive - "was" postponed. Hope this helps:)0 votedJune 18, 20190
- Ok, so you have an irrational fear of speaking. That's fine. I've had numerous students like that and I've broken the ice with every single one of them. First of all, let me say that your sentence structure is very nice and your knowledge is pretty decent, so it would be a shame not to utilize(fancy word for use, you might know it already:) ) it in actual communication. Also, regarding your fear, within or out of the context of language learning...have you heard of exposure therapy? Google it, I think it'll make your life easier.Now, more about the fear itself...I assume you're hoping to find a teacher who would make you comfortable enough to start speaking...that is completely understandable. However...I would like to suggest a different approach. Accept the fear...book a class, feel the fear, feel the discomfort and you'll see it's not the end of the world...also, with experience you will develop a resilience to the fear and will start to feel more comfortable.I've been interested in psychoanalysis and psychology in general for years. I've also been teaching English to a psychotherapist, so we often discuss all kinds of mental disorders. (It's just a word; it doesn't mean you're crazy)I know these are just words and not the actual experience that I'm describing and also you have no reason to trust that I have the faintest idea what I'm talking about, but I assure you, I do. As you see, I'm not telling you that you have no reason to fear speaking...you do..obviously you do..but it's not a rational reason...it's your own reason...something has obviously caused some form of social anxiety in you, but you're here...you've made a profile...that means you're willing to start communicating, especially given that you've shared your fear...that's a big step!I'm close to the word count limit, so feel free to contact me, at least in writing.0 votedJune 18, 20190
- I think what you're asking is how to write the word number, rather than the number itself. The abbreviation is No. with a dot. I know, the word is spelled nUmber, but the abbreviation is No. it's derived from the latin word numerO. And yes, if an abbreviation ends with the last letter of the word, like dr for doctor, there shouldn't be a dot, but there is and that's the standardized way...0 votedJune 18, 20190
- Question for fellow English teachersHi guys, this is gonna be pretty generic, but I'll try to be specific. I'v been teaching for a while now (10+ years) and I'm hoping to use this platfrom as a sort of step back form the hectic pace of how I normally teach. This means that after having taught numerous fce, cae and business courses, I would now like a break from all the pressure from focusing on exams all the time. Is it possible to accumulate a group of students who just want casual conversations and experiment with all the different methodological approaches? I have a lot of material, but I'm really hoping for some laid back lessons. Actually, there isn't a tip about italki that I would find superfluous, so I'd appreciate any heads up you can think of. Muchas gracias! Yeah, I haven't yet applied for teaching, as I keep editing the video, thinking it's too lame:DJune 18, 201900
- Ne znam koliko će ti ovo pomoći, ali mene isto to opterećuje, a imam TONU udžbenika, ali su sve pdf-ovi i nemam puno novijih izdanja, ali imam bukvalno za sve nivoe po tri različita seta udžbenika. Ja predajem već 10 godina, ali većinom sam radio po školama...prošle godine sam kratko radio s nekim rusima, skyeng i ok im je platfroma, sav materijal je bio super, ali je satnica bila mala i batalio sam. Naravno da bih ti mogao poslati materijal, ali su fajlovi ogromni i ima ih puno, a skoro sve sam skinuo sa istog sajta...samo ukucaj nivo koji ti treba i dodaj ova dva slova - vk...ne smem da ti saljem link, ali to ti je ruska drustvena mreža i tamo imaš sve! Cele pakete, sb,wb,tb, audio...sve. Ja sam sad upoznat sa većinom tih udžbenika i predlažem ti da izbegavaš headway, jer su suvoparni i štreberski. New English File su onako dinamičniji i možeš lako od jedne vežbe, nekog kratkog reading da razviješ temu za konverzaciju da ti prođe čas, da bude zanimljivo i tebi i djaku i da bude produktivno. Speak out je takodje ok i imas neke klipove tamo na vk, ali isto zna da bude malo socijalno, pa moras da proberes...ja sam malo informaticki duduk, pa koristim snipping tool i seckam i kopiram u word sta mi treba i onda to saljem uceniku skajpom ili mejlom. Ako imas pitanja, do not hesitate bla bla bla:) Vidim da ti je post od pre mesec i po dana...jesi li pocela da radis? Edit: Udžbenici koje sam naveo su pretežno za niže nivoe, a ako planiraš da pripremaš za Cambridge, najbolji su ready for first(više se ne zove fce), ready for cae, cpe...to su novija izdanja i prilagođena su ovom ovom formatu ispita iz 2015. Uglavnom, kad provališ vk, laknuće ti sigurno..0 votedJune 18, 20190
