Re: "Chat" phrases you hate

Of course Elfsleepy: www.thechatpage.com no cams, just people who want to meet friends from all over the world and learn English

I myself didn't find it a good one, Francesca! Last time I visisted there, there was a girl flirting a guy, and she kept talking all the time like "Hey, where r u? Do you hate me?", etc. Noone could chat there! It's hard to find a good chatroom! Native speakers are not interested in learning English, of course. They wanna talk, not teach. Unless they are very kind, they won't help you anything with your poor language. If you cannot understand them, they simply say bye (if they are polite) or stop chatting without saying anything (if they are not).

But if you simply go to a chatroom to learn English with people have the same purpose. They are (all) non-native speakers. Their English, even good, is not really natural. And you find that you don't want learn their English, anyway. Non-native speakers wanna seek native ones to practise English but sometimes, native speakers find that non-native ones seem to take advantages from them. And of course, they stop chatting! I've got several emails with resume/motivation letters attached from many non-speaking English countries, they ask me to correct them (even I'm not a native speaker!). Of course I don't have time to do that, unless they are from people I already had some chats with and I consider as friends. I can help if they ask me when chatting with me, but not a couple of long letters to check, even spelling mistakes. I get sick of them! I want to make friends, have some chit-chat, cultural exchanges... but NOT teaching English! My English is not that good!

So if you wanna talk with native speakers, try to improve your English by yourself first, so at least you can understand them in most of situations. They are willing to tell you what some slangs mean but not most of the time. I myself don't like the question "What does it mean?" all the time when I just use very simple English. When we go to a chatroom, just simply we want to have some gossips, to have fun. That's it! None wanna be an English teacher, neither do I. Teaching is some thing quite stressful, not that fun to do in free time. Anyway, best of luck for your English study! ^^

Cheers,
-Tammy

Could s.one give me a hand in correcting this? It's very important.

Hi all! This is a possible cover letter for my CV. Could anyone help me in correcting this?
Thanks!

Dear Sir/ Madam,

During and after University years I had the extraordinary possibility to work for ++++, an important Italian NGO that deals with development projects in Africa, Latin America and East Europe.
I helped with the organisation of a variety of events including fundraising events, enjoying working as part of a team; I learned how to cope with demanding situations and tight deadlines, as well as handling responsibilities and working autonomously.
This experience made me well aware of my interest in the charity field, so I decided to broaden my possibilities and move to London to learn English (at school I studied just French).
During my ten months stay, I went to a College and I worked in a pub as a waitress.
It has been a great experience which tough me a lot and I really enjoyed sharing life with people coming from different cultures.
Once back to Italy, I had a one year experience in the security sector as marketing officer.
Being the Company quite small, I learned how to be flexible and cover different positions, from marketing to customer care, from writing project reports to privacy issues.
I gained, also, more ability to manage my own workload and good computer skills.
I am an active volunteer: I help a local organization who supports single parents, especially immigrants, with their small children; I participate to âBanco Alimentareâ, a not for profit organization whose aim is to collect food surpluses from industries and redistribute them to several smaller organizations to help poor or homeless people.
Regarding my personality, I am an extrovert team player who has a genuine interest in and commitment to helping people.
I have recently moved to London and Iâm available for an interview at any time.

Please review the enclosed resume and consider my application for a place in your Organization.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
