I talked to her before i decide that she is right for me. Trial lessons serve that purpose.
That's great. You should proceed then.

Also, don't sign up for too many classes. It's always useful to gain exposure to different teaching styles and approaches, so perhaps you should commit to her for twenty lesson, and then supplement that with another ten lessons with someone else, just to vary things up.

Most importantly, don't forget to supplement your lessons with additional materials and exercises, which can be done in your own time. You may gain a lot of knowledge and insight during the classes, but most growth and development is achieved outside class time.

But that's a cop-out though. I know how bad drivers in Virginia are in snow, because I saw that when I lived in DC in the late 80s. Agonizingly slow traffic and 4" of snow on the Beltway, and some yutz with Virginia plates would stop their car two lanes from the shoulder, park it, get out, and walk down the freeway to go home.

So to say that VDOT could not anticipate snow is one thing. To say that they could not anticipate bad drivers is another untruth. Because, as we know, there will be bad drivers and there will be accidents with people doing stupid sh*t. This would not be news in the Virginia snow ... this would be news if that didn't happen.

So you have to use some serious selective memory mojo as VDOT to claim, "Well, we had no idea accidents would happen and would logjam the whole thing."
I get all that, but I don't remember them closing down the beltway or I95 for anything less than like two feet of snow, let alone 8 or 10.

sorry if it's not right place to post it but i usually used to post my issues here.

Siamak:
Hi dear, hope you'r doing well. I plan on improve my fluency in english in order to travel and work abroad. could you please give me detail about your style of teaching and how do you prepare lessons for student. I have to say about myself and my English level , i don't understand when someone speaks english quickly like some videos on youtube. I also weak in writing.
teacher 1:
Hello Siamak, it’s really nice meeting you

In my classes we work on your 4 skills which are listening, writing, speaking and reading in that case you don’t have to worry about anything. I will give you assignments in order to practice by yourself as well. I will have work on your writing as well. If you had any questions, do not hesitate to ask.

teacher2:
Hy Siamak. Basically I can prepare topics or you can enlighten me about your own topics of interests. We will have a conversation whereas in our talks,9 figures of speech, grammatical and spelling corrections will be done. I will give you a quiz and notes for you to go over. My lessons are easy and. I always tell my learners that practice makes perfect.

@swag thoughts on this wine? Bottle looked so ridiculously over the top I had to pick it up

Dude... that's a nice one.

Wax tops can be a thing (but they're rarely used on crap). And it's my region! Yeah, New York City wouldn't sound like a great wine region, but good wine grows everywhere in this country. And the Lisboa region has some good wines, both reds and whites. Technically the region also includes Leiria, which is some 50km or so north of downtown.

Alicante Bouschet is a traditionally French grape, but there's some really good examples of it here and it makes one of my more favorite varietals. Throw some cab in, and you're ready for power. But at 15%? Whoo man, are you getting surgery after drinking this? You won't feel a thing. ;)

As for the name, it's a cute one it is. Vidigal is a bit unusual in that 90% of their wines are for export. I think it's been the top import in Norway for years running, if you can believe that.

You call your teacher "dear"? Not "sir" or "miss/madam/ma'am" (depending on UK/US English).

Our market is really bad when it comes to better stuff and I never realised it until I started searching for specific things of certain quality. Not only I can't find plenty of good fountain pens & refills, but there's no better quality paper like Rhodia. It's just standard/bad stuff.
