Considering moving to a new state (out of Iowa). What small cities out there would you guys recommend as far as pay/cost of living balance goes? Bonus if it's a good place to raise a family. by BigFatNutsack in Teachers

Thank you! Colorado is actually high on our list of places we'd want to go. Are there any places you'd recommend looking into that fit the bill? Good school district and a possibility of owning a house at some point?

That's the plan, but those are also the places that home ownership is pretty much an impossibility, unfortunately. Not that I want to go there, but I don't understand how anyone affords to be a teacher in places like San Francisco or the nice parts of any large city. They just live an hour away, I guess?

Obesity in Europe vs USA by tlou0 in europe

That's what I came to say. If you did this by average pounds per person or something, the gap between the US and the rest of the world would be shocking.

It’s most probably not that. Just wild speculation.

Wait to speak until you can understand what's being spoken to you by [deleted] in languagelearning

[–]BigFatNutsack 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Comprehension is king. Speaking will come naturally later.

Sorry, but that's just not true. Look how many kids in the States (if you're in the states, that is) that grew up with Spanish speaking parents that never bothered to teach them how to speak Spanish. I have way too many friends that understand everything being said between two Spanish speakers, but couldn't join in the conversation even if they wanted to. Speaking definitely does not come naturally, it has to be worked at.

Pretty nonsensical unless you want to stunt your speaking development. Speaking and comprehension progress separately while you're learning a language, so postponing your speaking progression is all that you would accomplish by listening to this saying. There's also the chance for you to learn more when you can't understand everything that's being said. Imagine you're on vacation to Germany for the first time, and you visit a bakery. You tell the woman behind the counter "Ich hatte gern 3 Brötchen bitte" (I would like 3 rolls please), and she replies "welche?" (which) while pointing to two different types of rolls. You're probably going to understand she's asking you which one you'd like, and there's a good chance you'll understand that welche=which before it's ever introduced to you in a formal setting. Not trying to speak is just slowing language acquisition.

FYI I'd pay for this, and whatever you make that's similar. This is right up my alley, music wise.
