My name is Mystica.I'm 22 pursuing an English Licensure degree from the University of SouthernMississippi.

Take a year sabbatical to teach English in Thailand.

“No” is quite possibly the most valuable word in the English language.

I agree with Ronald Reagan in many respects when he said the scariest sentence in the English language is, "we are from the government and we are here to help." 

I thought I'd introduce myself and share my situation real quick.I'm 39 y.o, live in Denver (renting a 1b apartment) and work in aviation, which takes me away from home 2 weeks at the time, but allows me to be 2 weeks home at the time.

We removed a wall between the kitchen and dining room, updated the kitchen, gutted both bathrooms, paint, refinished hardwood, updated plumbing and electric and did an unbelievably large amount of landscaping (English Ivy AND Honeysuckle...c'mon!).

You will find sites in English for foreigners.

Is he US based, native English speaker?
