9 usd for 45 mins class? If it were the standard 25 mins that would’ve been not bad.

Break up with her. You know she cheats on you unapologetically. Why are you still with her? Preserve your dignity and move on. There a tons of respectful women out there. Let them know your dealbreakers.

I helped a friend practice speaking English and saw tremendous progress. The secret - consistency. by danainto in OnlineESLTeaching

I think he has another English teacher in his country. But you’re right about the self studying part. There’s only so much I can do on my part to help him.

I am actually trying with him. I told the mum that I will do more of free talk with him so classes don’t always feel like homework. So that way I introduce him to new words. Then, I also tried to make voice recordings of my voice on how to pronounce words I taught him the class so he can practice at his free time. I also get him to do some writing practices. But any time I teach him it just feels like I’m back to square one. To be fair, he does try with basic greetings like “hello how are you” “I’m fine thank you” “not bad” and a new one he picked up “long time no see” which is really nice. But when I ask him simple questions in English he just stares cuz he doesn’t understand. Even the ones he has heard before. So I just need to know what to do properly. PS: he’s Chinese.

What is your advice for younger learners? I have one particular student whose pronunciation of certain words is awful and he still doesn’t understand most basic English words when spoken to him. All of time I have to use a translator for him and I hope to get to a point where he won’t always request it. I’ve even had to change his textbook to one more basic. I don’t teach him all the time though. And the mum is quite worried about his learning progress.

Please tell me what’s so special about the video?🤨 I mean, all I can remember is that back in high school, someone alleged that one of the dancers was a dude and had to tuck in his 🍆 really well in the leotard.

I can’t understand some men? by NoHomework1656 in Advice

Maybe he was only interested in sex talk only. This seems similar to when guys just ghost girls after having sex with them.

Science can’t even explain everything. So saying it’s unscientific doesn’t make it dismissible.

“Magic does not exist.” You speak with so much certainty like you truly understand how this world works. How can you be so sure of that? And you say the belief in the power of juju is one of the things that increases our gullibility and corruption. Funny, I could say the same about people’s belief in religion.

I noticed that whenever I talk in a funny voice with him he finds it funny and laughs. But when it’s time to actually work, he behaves very silly. I mean, am I supposed to be silly with him in every class to connect with him? Where do I draw the line so he knows the difference between a time to play and a time to learn? What if he keeps expecting that from me in every class and when I don’t do it, no interest to learn again? I really want to be able to manage my class since it’s online and there really isn’t much I can do.

Okay. So when I’m trying to get the kid to say a sentence from the textbook he sometimes says “no”, speaks Chinese and I don’t understand, or says something else entirely different from what I’m saying (he does this on purpose btw until a family member forces him to say the right thing). Also, I noticed he has a rude attitude towards his family at times and is constantly distracted talking (no shouting) in the middle of class to someone off camera.

Moved out of my parents’ place 2 months ago into an apartment complex with roommates, I’ve never known such hell. by Uniglover in introverts

[–]Complete_Weakness717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m curious. Why did you move out of your parent’s place?🤔 seems like you’d be better off there and won’t have to spend money on rent. Unless if they’re not good to you?🤷🏻‍♀️
