english lessons..

[TNT650R]

Hi guys..sorry if it isn't a beer post...
But maybe someone can help me!
As you know I am in sydney at the moment and I decide to improve my english(just reading this ad you could understand the reason!)
So I m looking for someone who can help me,maybe someone of you,your girl your friend anyone.
I can swap with italian lessons or I will pay.
For the moment I need simple grammar lessons (e.g when use the past instead than..) and some conversation for improve my speak..
So I m looking for something easy and cheaper..that quite every one can do..instead in the future I will need something more professional.
Thanks

This board is just about the worst place I can think of to look for such a service.

Step 1 - Got to the local TAFE
Step 2 - Enquire about the Language Literacy and Numeracy Program (LLNP)

You'll need to pay for it, but each module is absurdly cheap and lvl 4 is mostly conversational/work focused. About the level you're speaking of.

You could also head for the nearest Italian club (let me guess, it would have to be in Leichhardt) for a few Morettis and get the advice of some of the seniors there - they may be able to suggest some good avenues - and a good chat in Sardinian or Friulan or whatever, you'll feel at home

@Bribie G I wanna improve my english not my Italian!! :lol: especially if they give me some moretti!!! but anyway I try to contact them!maybe they can help me to find a job or I don't know...also if until now I always try to above the italian..because I spent 30y with italians!now it's time to change!!!!

Yes I can see where you are coming from.
But where is this going to?
Nick always puts his point across.

 

[Nick JD]

You won't catch me using a preposition to end a sentence with.

 

[Bribie G]

Yes that's something up with which you should not put.

Why is it we seem to retain this complete bullshit from primary school but we generally can't seem to manage apostrophes and simple homonyms?
