Hello, my dear friends!

I still have a New Year mood and that's why I invite you to share some interesting New Year customs and traditions! I think every country has something unique and unusual. New Year is a holiday when miracles can happen. So let's try to prolong this condition of miracles anticipation.

In Russia we’ll celebrate Christmas only on the 7th of January, that’s why New Year celebration is more important than in many countries of Europe and America. Now all Russian people are havin

2013 Time for a new beginning

Now that 2013 has arrived, it's time for me to find another job.  As some of you know, I left my job teaching English in Hong Kong last September just before my brother's wedding in October.  I wasn't going to try and begin a new job until 2013 since my father passed away in December, 2012.  

Now it is 2013 so if anyone knows of any TESOL jobs available feel free to let me know.  I have a natural inclination to go where I haven't been before (Mexico, South Korea, Hong Kong) simply because I do en

Conflict Resolution

2346504656?profile=original

As English learning friends of mine graduate and find themselves in the work force, I am beginning to hear complaints from some of them about how terrible the job is, how terrible the boss is, or how unkind their co-workers are. Often their first reaction is to try and find a job somewhere else. Anywhere but here. There may be times when moving on is the best choice, but I would suggest you at least think twice about it before you leave.

When we first enter the work force, we have high ideals an

Hello my dear EC members,

It's me once again here at the end of the year 2012. So, what do you do or what do you remember on the last day of the year on MyEC? It must be different-different things to do and to remember for each and every one, but as it comes to me then the last day of the year is a special day for me on MyEC. It's the day when I say 'good bye' to the calender year and to MyEC year. Don't misunderstand me, I am not saying 'good bye' to MyEC, but it's the day when I joined MyEC in

How Do YOU Organize Your Life?

2346502456?profile=originalMy husband’s desk is always neat and clean, with maybe one or two stacks of things “to do.” You can see him in the picture, and a desk that is pretty clean. All that is on his desk is a monthly calendar, the book on Egypt’s Nefertiti he is currently reading, a book by C.S.Lewis that he keeps trying to read but is really not very interested in, but he feels he should read it because his son recommended it to him. Also, there is the TV remote, ONE pencil, another calendar, 2013, smaller, that our

Japanese year-end and New Year

I write about Japanese year-end and New Year. THe 31st December is called "Oomisoka" 「大晦日(おおみそか)」 in Japan. Japanese people eat soba on this day. There are some theories about why Japanese people eat soba on this day, I think it's because soba is auspicious in the end.
We hear year-end gongs on the eve of New Year. The gongs are struck 108 times because men are disabused 108 worldly desires to strike the bell 108 times in Buddhist beliefs.
We eat New Year's food during the first three days of Janu

Hello everyone!

I really got a kick out of reading this story that I've just collected from the internet. Here is  THE SOURCE I'd like to share with you all and let's learn together in having fun :)

HOW TO PLAY THE GAME?

Because the story was written in so many idioms and it seems to be difficult for us to understand the content if we didn't know all those idioms in it. So, each of us has to find out one by one and beside, giving the meaning and the sample sentence for that idiom we just find.

Perfect Pronunciation Exercises

2346501156?profile=originalThe following is a total reproduction of what I stumbled upon the online Merriam-Webster Learner's Dictionary site. I'm neither the creator nor rightful owner of it! I decided to share the exercises with EC members after I found that they would be very useful to those who are serious about improving their pronunciation, especially some problematic pairs of the vowel sounds  and consonant sounds alike!  It  would be to your  advantage to do  these  exercises. Happy learning!.

We all know that English has become a universal language. You need to learn it, whether you're a student, a professional, or just a visitor to some foreign  country. In many countries, you're not even considered "well" educated until and unless you know how to communicate fluently in English.

Since English is such a vital language to succeed in life, it has become very popular with language learners. Every other person you meet would like to speak English well. The very idea of communicating in E

Pride of Latvia

Tonight I'm watching program about people who are doing good things for others .. One of them "Fearless Child" .. It's a story about 18 years old girl taking care of 3 brothers and 2 sisters. Her father died when she was 12, but her mother was drinking and didn't care about children! Mother rights were taken away from her. So oldest girl chose to be a mother to her brothers and sisters instead of going to study and making career :)

for better or for ,,,,

    Well, twenty thirteen is coming fast. I wonder whether we are ready for it or not. In  twenty twelve, we had our ups and downs. Is it possible, we try to be better than that previous year? Wars, unrest, killing innocent people, changing regimes ,,, etc. Well, I hope we try to change ourselves in twenty thirteen.  Who knows it can be a year of change to the whole world.

I wish I could

Hi everyone,

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Time flies quickly, doesn't it? We're now at the end of 2012 and it's time for us to make a New Year resolution for 2013. You may say you have never made any of such resolutions, then you're not alone in saying that. In fact, I find it difficult to stick to all the resolutions, too. So, I'd like to use this expression "I wish I could...in 2013."

I wish I could write many more blog posts, say, one post a week in the new year. I did feel like writing
