I’m an American, and I’m a certified TEFL instructor through WLS in England.
I love to tutor students in American English Conversation, or help students proofread internet copy or papers they’ve written.
If you’d like to sign up to be tutored, please go to www.Linkua.com and search for Tutor #2642 and the class: Conversational American English. You can leave me a message on Linkua, or you can chat with me over on the right on Meebo. I will try to promptly set up a tutoring/conversation time with you.
I love meeting new people from different countries and have lived in many different countries all my life. Don’t be nervous to set up a tutoring session and improve your written and spoken English today!
A palindrome is a word that is the same whether it is read from right to left or left to right. Two examples of palindromes in English are the words “racecar” and “kayak.” Can you think of other English words that are also palindromes? Post them here!
Are you sick and tired of English movies that look interesting but are full of cuss words, extreme violence, sex, and blasphemy? I know I sure am! That’s why our family has used a ClearPlay DVD player from ClearPlay.com for several years. Get rid of the stuff that bothers you without affecting the movie’s content at all!

How to Hyphenate a Series of Nearly Alike Hyphenated Words:
* The third- and fourth-grade teachers met with the parents.
* Both full- and part-time employees will get raises this year.
* We don’t see many 3-, 4-, and 5-year-old children around here.
What would you do if you lived in Pakistan and your entire family, property, and village were wiped out by horrendous floods? Where would you go from there? Would you try to find a way to get to another country where you could start all over? Would you feel like giving up on life? How would you feel and what would you do?
Write a few English sentences expressing your feelings and your answers to the questions above. I will offer comments on each legitimate English response.
What would your answer be to this oil leak disaster in the Gulf of Mexico? Would you blame the oil rig inspectors who didn’t do their job properly according to some in the news media? Would you blame BP as Obama and many others are doing? Would you blame Obama’s administration which Obama is not doing? Would you blame God (people love to do that even when He didn’t cause something to happen)? How about blaming the animals and birds for being in the wrong spot at the wrong time? What answer do you have (make it brief and civil) for this U.S. disaster?
…no word in the English language rhymes with “month”?
…no word in the English language rhymes with “purple”?
…no word in the English language rhymes with “silver”?
…no word in the English language rhymes with “orange”?
Since English poetry and music uses rhyming most of the time, those words cannot be used at the end of lines that must rhyme with others. How do composers and poets get around the problem? They just use another word after the un-rhyming word or they use the words in lines that don’t have to rhyme with another.
Do you know the answer to this question? It has changed through the years as new words are invented. English is an open language and tens of thousands of new words are created every year and put into dictionaries. Give this one a try. Leave me a comment with the word that you think is the longest English word. I’ll let you know the answer soon.

After listening to this song, can you tell me what he means by "Home is where the heart is, where the heart is home"? I can relate to this song because both my brother and I were raised in a different country--islands of the Pacific--and we both feel a longing to return there. We also have a home where we will live for eternity. Can you guess where that is?
My recommendation, don't ever do business with PeoplePC. They ripped us off with absolutely no regret and no refund. They have zero integrity as a company! Make sure you always carefully check your credit card statements--you may be getting ripped off by some company without your knowledge, too.
