Who Are the 'Modarators' here?

First of all, I want to say that I really love this site..!

My Question is: Who are the moderators here? Are they teachers? Are they qualified to answer students' grammer questions...? What country are they from and how did they become moderators?
(Sorry about all the questions, I'm just curious...).

Thanks.

I think I'll spend here a lot of my spare time...

A few days ago my teacher and I had differences of opinions and I wanted to know if I can show her this site and maybe change her mind...:) I'll do that.

Welcome franvel. Thank you for your contribution. many of the posters here are English language students, but anyone can make a spelling mistake! We look forward to lots of constructive posts fom you.

Hi everybody,


I just want to salute the job done by the moderators over here. I mean devoting oneself to others is more than a sacrifice. Allright! they are from various field, education (retired teachers or not), students, scientists, IT personnel and so on, they surely like it, they perhaps are paid for it, but the job they are doing is great. Human communication/interaction is never a simple task. People have differents views, temper, behaviour and providing the appropriate answers to questions sometimes needs extra reading and so on. Comments are not always good and frustrations are often in the rendez-vous. Yet you are still there, hanging out with us, giving us a bit of your time, doing all what you do, for the sake of english, for the sake of knowledge.... The less I can say is...thank you all.

Thank you, thank you, Adoni!
I'll never learn as much English as I would wish, and answering all your questions helps me understand the language. Moreover, it's great to have the views of people scattered all over the world regarding many issues.
