I know, given the economy I thought they would be more inclined to do a good job. I just don't know what to do with them.

Luckily I got my degree almost 10 years ago at this point. Sometimes I wish I had gone back for my masters.

Oh mannn, I feel so young. ;n; I really would like to go and get my masters, but money is a huge issue. orz
Plus finding a college that even offers a program is an issue too.

Ah I've always wanted to learn a foreign language but I don't have the head for it. Plus my southern drawl makes pronunciation difficult at times. Heck I can't even pronounce Rolls Royce without messing up at least twice.

Oh gosh accentssss <3333
I'm from the mid-west, but my teacher teaches a dialect from southern Japan, so I get looked at funny sometimes here. It's great!

And thank you for the compliment Chry ^_^ Besides it's fun to talk to people.

So you teach English to Japanese students, Kanna? Do you teach them British English or American English?

It's super fun talking, I'll admit sometimes I almost forget to bid! orz

I'm teaching American English to this girl, since she'll be studying there, but regularly they learn British English. Sadly speaking isn't really part of their classes, so it's a little difficult for her, but she...isn't the best student regularly either. I've been working with her regular teacher to try and work out a plan, but....I'm really concerned for her. orz

Have you taught her any slang? I know it's not proper language skills but its quite practical. I've dated a few guys from China and the Philippines and American slang, even the most basic everyday slang confuses them. When one heard my mother say she was going to "run some errands" he asked "What is an errand? How do you run it?"

I wish I could, if she could understand and speak any at all. It takes her about 10 minutes to reply to simple questions, complete with me having to translate to Japanese. It's really frustrating, but....I'm really doing all I can. If her level was higher, I definitely would, but I've got to get her speaking level up before then.
