Dear MyEC Members,
Today I have a special request! We need a few volunteers to help out in the MyEC Video Gallery. As I mentioned a few months ago, the video gallery needs to be cleaned up! I truly believe that this space has great potential. Videos such as this one and this one can be very useful for practising English.
Nadiyah has done an excellent job with the MyEC Photo Gallery. Most photos on MyEC have appropriate titles. They often have descriptions and tags, too. Nadiyah comes up with interesting photo challenges to help keep this space a place for practising English.
Now we are going to work on categorizing our video collection! We are going to categorize the videos by topic or use, such as Grammar, Music, Pronunciation, MyEC Introductions, Challenges, Vocabulary, Culture, Comedy, How To etc. We need a few volunteers who can help us do this. Are you interested in helping? Volunteering in a club is a great way to practise your English. You can even mention this kind of experience on a resumé. Please send me a message if you would like to help. I'll be choosing two or three members very soon!
We also need a NEW video moderator. This person has a few important jobs:
- featuring videos that are useful for learning and teaching English
- adding new useful videos to the MyEC Video Gallery
- recommending top videos for the MyEC newsletter
- encouraging members to use appropriate titles, descriptions, and tags in their videos
- leaving comments on videos
- creating video challenges
- deleting inappropriate videos
If you are interested in becoming MyEC's video moderator, please send a note to my inbox. The video mod will help us categorize our current and future video collection! You should be passionate about videos. It would also help if you have a webcam/video camera and are comfortable using it.
Thank you,
Tara

Thank you to all EC members who sent their messages on my wall! I'm still in awe when our dearest Tara, sent her warm messages. Now, I saw Anele's masterpiece. I deeply appreciate it. I'm more grateful every time I log in here on MyEC. Cheers to all of us! : )
Thanks Rajesh!
Hope to see our new moderator soon !
@ Dear Expector, I don't think you will change your name, and if you do it unknowingly then I'm sure you will be back with the same name as you did with your avatar. :D
By the way, I won't prefer to change your name, like I didn't with your avatar. :-)
Thanks Tara, Nadiyah!
Ha! @Expector I hope that's a joke! Don't change your name! It's the best!
I'm not good at remembering people's names, which can be a problem. So, I perfer simple names such as Tara, Bob, Mark, etc.
By the way, I'm considering changing my profile name. Do you think it's a good idea? I don't think Expector is an ideal name. Can anyone here offer to help me with a nicer new English name? Do you think Tom is a suitable name for me?
Sorry, Nadiyah:))
I like how Expector called it an "innocent mistake". On the other hand, your name is the most important word in the world. It doesn't feel good when people say it wrong or call you the wrong name by accident. Yesterday I called my friend Tanya, "Shelly". :)
Now, back to business. We need 1 or 2 volunteers (people who are not already mods). This is a great exercise for English practice. Don't be shy.
That's funny, Tara! I just teasing you :)) It can happen to anyone. Look at Expector's comments below, He did the same mistake with you, Tara :p
Sorry, I noticed the typo, but forgot to let you check it, Tara! We all know it's an innocent mistake:))
Both Naidyah and Nadira are doing a good job here, and their names are so similar too!
