I am an experienced, reliable, and patient teacher, already teaching online. I taught for the last three years in Tokyo and enjoyed the experience very much so on returning to the US I have been looking to continue with this work. I started a website for my own private Japanese students, www.redpensensei.com, where you can see more a detailed biography and pictures. Prior to teaching I worked for several prominent investment banks as an editor and proofreader so I am very comfortable teaching Business English as well. My lessons are relaxed, fun and useful!

    Hi - I would just like to add that "This is just not on" sounds quite awkward to me. Nick could be right in his interpretation but it is hard to be sure without some context.

    Hi - I would change the tense because the item was made and finished in the past. So, "It was custom made for me" etc. Your sentences are all correct. In the last one you would say "for me" and not "from me". Other ways to say it: I had it made for me. Or, simply, I had it made. A very fancy way to say it is: It is bespoke. This is British English and it just means that it was custom made too. But it sounds nice and classy! Good luck - rrr

    This quotation is rather confusing so don't feel bad for not being able to understand it. It means something like: The sadness of youth isn't so bad because you can share it with your friends whereas when you are a super oba-chan (!) you won't have people to share it with. I assume because your friends are mostly dead! Sorry - it is a dark concept... Please don't worry about it - maybe it is wrong?! - and have a lovely day!

    Sometimes I dream about you.

    I know I did a stupid thing before and I know that it was my fault.

    Now I regret it.

    Good work. The other sentences are fine. And most importantly I hope you feel better soon!

    Hi - It means the same as "don't be a jerk," or "don't be a fool," but is more rude and informal. You might say it to your friend as a joke but you probably should not say it to your dad!

    Learning English with Skype

    Learning English with Skype is becoming popular. Prior to this, students had to go to a language school. For employees, to improve or learn English, they must arrange their schedules to attend night classes after work.
    With the ability to study with Skype we can save much time and still practise English. However, some teachers teaching on Skype are not professional. Some of them don't prepare lessons before class. Others do not care for their students. Therefore, the quality of the lessons varies.

     

     

    =============

    In the first line you could also describe "language school" as "bricks and mortar". For example: Prior to this, students had to go to a bricks and mortar language school.

    This makes it clear that before Skype students had to go to a physical, old-fashioned school.
