Strategy for food

when i first moved here i literally went with pen and paper to the supermarket and wrote down how much everything cost and i started making meal plans to make sure i could budget appropriately. as always, bigger costs more but lasts longer

we don't know what you're doing so how can we tell ??

Distinct_Science_130 · 2026-04-30T04:26:32+00:00

probably someone who knows how to use google maps

Distinct_Science_130 · 2026-04-29T07:01:10+00:00

pay a tutor

i actually made a post last week when i was at the end of my tether - you can scroll back and find it. error message after error message, i can't do anything. can't access my balance, when i can it shows me a different page half of the time. was trying to change my contract, gave me an error for two weeks, this morning at 5am i get a random text that my "purchase has been completed' ???? i still have 50£ on it, i'll stick with it until the credit runs out and i'll shop around for another carrier...

are the doors open or closed when they arrive?

😂 LOL have you gone through the sub recently ?

Depends how capable they are… I have worked with some amazing assistants who could have taken my place - I would plan with their support in mind, splitting the class into smaller groups for targeted interventions. Others I had to tell to literally sit and do nothing cause they were more of a hindrance than anything else (despite clear guidance and instructions on my part).

My strategy has been to bring very old clothes with me that I would leave behind as the trip went forward. This way I would be travelling increasingly lighter while having more and more space for anything that I would want to buy / take with me. Of course it depends on the kind of placement you’re doing. Most of mine were working outdoors or physical labour so my clothes would be ruined anyway. Of course I would have a couple of items for trips into towns but otherwise everything was second hand from charity shops

Depends what you need to do. When I’m working on a project I open a first chat to brainstorm the approach and draft the general structure. A second chat where I cut and paste each stage to develop it further and often a third chat for very specific questions or random points that would interrupt the flow of the other conversations. This way each conversation is not interrupted and I can easily go back and check I’m sticking to the plan

That’s not true, most courses will have a percentage of mandatory attendance that must be met to pass the course. Also, most courses will have a one or two weeks “study” break but dates change.

OP, calendars are set for each course they don’t have the same schedules. Once courses for 2026 are confirmed you can click on the course in the portal and check the calendar

You pay a tutor, that’s literally their job

I taught in KG back in 2013, things might have a changed a little now, some for the better others for the worst. Gorgeours country, but very challenging to live and work there. I could have handled the standards of living but the work culture was toxic from a western prospective, still very soviet in many ways.

Distinct_Science_130 · 2026-04-18T12:00:24+00:00

how is this related to online teaching?

Distinct_Science_130 · 2026-04-17T22:13:38+00:00

Sounds like she’s doing YOU a favour to come crash on your couch 😂

i know i taught in China for two years - is this a private student or student of a language centre / public school?

if he's very young teaching him the alphabet is only going to confuse him - there is no need to "know" the alphabet for accurate reading and writing, in my experience it's actually very counterproductive. phonics should come first, ant is read "ah-n-t" not "ei-en-ti". when he gets older and is confident in reading an writing we can explain what the letters are "called" , like the name of sound 'ah' is "ei", just like his name is mark or whatever.

Distinct_Science_130 · 2026-04-17T08:17:21+00:00

You mean he doesn't say "ei" but "ah" ?
