If you TRY, you can do anything!

It's always been my belief that you cannot put information in other people's heads. If you find a way to show them something, they can use their own intelligence to learn. This is my approach to teaching, trying to be both informative while allowing the students to find their own way of learning.

I've spent the last 30 years teaching in various capacities. I've taught martial arts to kids and developed a curriculum that was geared specifically to enhance their development.

I spent several years working with children suffering from autism and Asperger's -- trying to help them learn to deal with the world around them and to learn from their environment. Finally, it was while helping a child that I was asked to work at the Toronto School Board. While I was there, I helped out with kids who were learning English, and my love of teaching ESL began.

    It's a good video. In my language learning journey, I use different mechanisms to improve my English skills. Well, for my input skills (listening and reading), obviously, I read and listen a lot. I have a good tip to enhance your input skills faster, which is to read and listen at the same time. I don't know why, but for me, this method helped me stay focused on the content, and I was able to understand words and sentences faster. Additionally, during my downtime, such as when I clean the house or go to university, I listen to English content to maintain or improve my listening level. Now, for my output skills (speaking and writing), I focus on practicing my writing skills by writing at every opportunity. This helps me create English sentences well, which in turn helps my speaking. For my speaking skills, I like to enhance my pronunciation and talk to other people in my target language. By the way, I liked that video so much, and I wish you total success in your life. Hugs from Brazil! Edit: Guys, we are in an amazing technological period because we have technologies that support our skills, such as ChatGPT, which you can use to correct your written text, improve your language learning strategies, and consult new tips to enhance your language skills.

    The left and right sides of the spectrum do NOT represent a "group of principles". It simply represents the amount of govt intervention tolerated. Period. You leftists try to complicate the political spectrum because if you actually stated where Fascism, Communism, Marxism and Authoritarianism were it would make you look bad. Thus, you try to slide Fascism and Authoritarianism on the Right and make a Y-axis when none is needed. The left and right sides are incredibly simple--The Left believe in big top down govt and increased oppression. The Right believes in smaller localized govt. Big govt, Left; small govt, Right. That's it. So, by that definition all the ISMs are on the Left, Conservatives are on the right, Libertarians are further right and the furthest right are Anarchists. Done. There's no need to sprinkle Libertarians throughout both sides like you lefties like to do. The fact that you can't precisely place all of the political entities neatly on a 1-D spectrum shows that your definition of the political spectrum is incorrect. There's no need for a Y-axis. You leftists just don't want to own up to your ACTUAL beliefs so you try to muddy the political waters by shifting Fascism where it doesn't belong. Hitler was a Socialist, it's in the name of his party, duh. You lefties put Hitler on the Right because you didn't want to look worse than you already do. Conservatives, and people on the Right, CAN'T be Authoritarians because Authoritarians believe in big gov't control, Conservatives do not. Authoritarians are on the Left next to Facists. Period. Libertarians CAN'T be on the Left because they believe in minimal govt, not more?! The Right does NOT believe in a Central Authority. They believe in just the opposite-local govts/municipalities should have more power than national govts. Secondly-Nationalism & Traditionalism-Fascists believe in extreme elements of this; Conservatives do not believe in the extremes of this. Also, how is Nationalism purely Facist?? Nationalism is at play in almost all belief systems except maybe Libertarians and Anarchists?! (Anti-Communism)-the only reason Fascists hate Communism is because they (the supreme leader) wants all the power and does not want a polit bureau having any authority. It has NOTHING to do with being on the opposite side of the spectrum(which once again I have to spell it out for you means, ‘more centralized govt control on the left and less centralized smaller govt on the right). A strong military. Fascists believe in a strong military solely to keep their power and use it against their own people when uprisings occur. Conservatives believe in a strong military for national defense reasons. Heck, if we’re gonna use THAT logic you could say that Facists and Communists are on the same side since Communist regimes like strong militaries?! See, you Lefties want to try and muddle the Left/Right spectrum with this crap because if you spoke the truth it would make the Left look as bad as it should. Nope, it's real simple--the left side of the spectrum is more centralized govt control and the right is less centralized smaller govts. There's no need for a Y-axis for Collectivism and Individualism. Collectivism is Left(Communism, Marxism, Facism); Individualism is Right(Conservatism, Libertarianism and Anarchy). Canada is NOT Center?! You totally told on yourself and exposed yourself as a Communist. Also, in Canada, you DO pay for healthcare--you pay with poor quality, nearly non-existent, healthcare where it takes months to get into a doctor or get a procedure done.

    After all a native speaker will ask you "did you have a chance to do ... ?" instead of "have you had a chance to do ...?" and you will be frustrated again

    I’m trying to find an explanation for “this” versus “that” when talking about events or concepts. For example, I’ve noticed ESL Europeans, and some pretentious-sounding (to me) Americans will use the following construction: (Describes some event or some concept and then…) “This amuses/amused me,” / ”confused me.” To my ears, it sounds more correct to say (describes some event or some concept and then…) “That amuses/amused me,” / “confused me.” - Is there a name for this (haha… seems so arbitrary sometimes) phenomenon? - Is there a consistent rule for deictics referencing events and/or concepts?

    Funny how a coniugation of verbs in the past, is called "present" perfect. And why "perfect"... what is so special about it to make it perfect? This has always been a mystery to me.
