English may not be spoken language in the world, but it is the official language in a large number of countries. It is estimated that the number of people in the world that use in English to communicate on a regular basis is 2 billion! English is the dominant business language and it has become almost a necessity for people to speak English if they are to enter a global workforce, research from all over the world shows that cross-border communication is most often conducted in English. Its impo

Hey EC,
Firstly, I'd really like to thank you guys for welcoming me back to EC with virtual open arms. I can't express just how much I appreciate all the support and feedback I've been receiving from you all. My friends! :)
Most of the long-time members here know me by now. And I'm enjoying meeting a lot of the members that found EC during my absence. So, as many of you already know, I love teaching English! I teach English face to face in Melbourne, Australia with a variety of clients ranging in
Helloo
I have not been writing my blog for two years since my last update was 2014. I am thinking I should write a bit to brush up my English writing.
I am taking an ESL class every Mondays and Wednesdays. I have been studying for properly two months. There are eight students including me. Yesterday I learnt about using Present Perfect and Simple past. I am still confused with these tenses, but I will review them again on the weekend.
If you have time, Could you please help correct my article here?
Take a look at this picture. Can you tell which way the bus (Okay, it's nothing like a bus, just work with me!) is going? Right or left? I know what you're thinking, "Are you kidding me? How would I know? You're being ridiculous!"
Seriously, look again. Nothing, huh? o.O
This question was asked to a bunch of preschoolers in the U.S. With the exact picture. 90% of them voted for left. When asked why they said, "Because you can't see the door to get on t
At the start of 2016, I said to myself to take simple things in life and be happy. I never thought that it will involve changing my life style. I never thought that I could find happiness in running and hiking too.
Like many women, I always bemoaned about my weight, while chugging down a lot of yummy food. Diet is just a fancy word, more like a myth rather than a reality. After my surgery last year, exercises are too few and far in between. Don't get me wrong. I'm not obese, though I'm not at my
In my country, we have a song like that : (it’s very interesting but with my level, I’m sure that I can’t translate it as well as itself)

I have another thing that I love
In our life, we meet so many things and here, I throw away the worst things. I am talking about these sweet things. Hope, it will make your day brighter.
The sweet thing is : every day, when I cook some food for my kids, I receive long kisses from them and they never forget to giv
After a long ,dark,cold winter days Spring just arrived today. Migrated birds coming back home, hibernated animals coming out, Ice and snow is melting. We can miss the words like snow, sleet, hail, rain and freezing in our weather reports. Finally Spring arrived. No winter lasts for ever. March 1st is the first day of spring.
I am already dreaming of warmer softer breezes. When I walk through the road and parks I can see variety of early spring flowers.It was cold and ice in my garden, couldn't
A "Wake up, you're gonna be late. Again!" from your mother,
a slight kick from her when you want to sleep for five more minutes,
a good morning kiss from her when you say, "Ouch! I'm up, I'm up, I'm up.",
a manly hug from your father,
a sigh of relief from you which means that he's got your back; no matter what,
a baby's laughter in a crowded subway,
a secret handshake with your best bud that was cool once you invented it, but it was awfully weird for others, (the handshake is still cool for you two,
The situation
There are five houses in five different colors in a row. In each house lives a person with a different nationality. The five owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar and keep a certain pet. No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar, or drink the same beverage. Other facts:
- The Brit lives in the red house.
- The owner living in the center house drinks milk.
- The Spanish keeps a dog as pet.
- The Japanese smokes “Parliament”.
- The Norwegian lives
As a lot of you know the Latin people occupied Great Britain for centuries. So then a lot of people spoke Latin and a lot of prest words in English come from Latin. For example, "street" comes from "strata", which means "camp". Then there are alot of English words which are Latin forms. Especially in medicine, there are a lot of them, like "pneumonia, bronchitis, thyroid, penis, appendicitis", and so on. As well as, words like "album, pendulum, addendum, auditorium", etc.
If you see the work ref
My dear friends! I managed to get sick and to lose my voice a few days ago. So, if I can't teach either my students or my band, I decided to teach you some American and British sayings, idioms and proverbs. My idea is the following. First, I will post a few expressions with the examples asking you to explain what they mean. I'd like to say there are so many English idioms that you can't know them all! So, the idea of speaking/listening any foreign language well is to be able to understand the ge
I am happy
Life is short
But I am happy
I am happy to work
I am happy in rest
I have no vehicle to travel
But I am happy
To walk by feet
If nobody with me
I am happy alone
If someone angry on me
I am happy with that aggration
The past has been gone
I am happy with the memories in the past
Future will come
But I am happy to wait the future
My life is full of happiness
Life is short
I am happy
I will be happy
I will stay happy
Because I am happy with my attitude to be happy
Stay happy

Do you know what's to be on the horn of dilemmas? If you don't, know it's preferable not to be on the horn of dilemmas. The expression on the horn of dilemmas is an idiom and means:
a)"faced with two equally undesirable alternatives";
b)"unable to decide between two things because either could bring bad results ";
c)"having to decide between two things, people, etc".
Probably, you're on the horn of dilemmas when you have too much homework to do and at the same time you have to do washing up.
