| Description |
I wish to learn Punjabi because it is the first language of my wife and the only language of several of her family members.
M aintaining these relationships is important to me and being able to teach my children about their heritage would be facilitated by having a fully bilingual household.
I have been reading the Punjabi book in the 'Teach Yourself' series but consider myself a beginner.
Grammar and pronunciation are particular problems, but I do have exercises from the text series, so if time constraints become an issue I would prefer to focus on pronunciation and conversation, since they are more urgent requirements for social usage.
I am willing to dedicate as many as 3-4 hours per week to language study.
In a teacher, I would say tolerance and patience would be the most important qualities I would look for. My situation is not unique, but still fairly uncommon and I would greatly appreciate somebody who is more interested in satisfying a thirst for learning rather than judging my motivations.

| Description |
For quite some time I have been interested in learning a second language. For no other reason than for my own enjoyment, to broaden my knowledge and advance myself.
I am a beginner, as I have no current vocabulary in the Spanish language.
I would like to learn at least the basics and advance from there.
Honestly speaking, I have never done a one-on-one lesson in any aspect of life and would have to say someone who is at ease and patient. I am a quick learner and work hard, but as stated previously, I have no existing experience with Spanish. A quality that is as important is a teacher who can engage the student in many different ways; meaning, I am a very 'hands on' kind of individual. Speaking words and asking to repeat them is not a learning tool that I work well with.
I hope to find the right fit and am excited to move forward!

| Description |
My family is Cantonese, and I know how to understand the language pretty well as far as basic conversation goes. I want to improve my reading and writing, as well as speaking on a more professional and advanced stage because I want to communicate in Cantonese in the future if I return to Hong Kong for jobs or internships. I just don't want to let what I do know about the language now to go to waste. The level I am at would probably be intermediate, but I am not sure. As far as understanding goes, I can watch the news or shows or listen to everyday converstation w/o any problems, but if I try to respond it is a lot harder. Also, my vocabulary is limited to everyday phrases, so in a professional setting, many words/phrases are hard to understand. As far as reading and writing goes, I've had many years of traning for mandarin since I was put into those classes when I was younger and I lived in Beijing and Shanghai, but attended international school, while having private Mandarin lessons at home. So used to be able to read and write in Mandarin pretty well, but 4-5 years w/o practice has made me forget a lot. I also never use/practice Chinese in my everyday life since I don't speak it to people around me. So I feel like I would like to improve on wriitng and reading at a more advanced level, especially with traditional Chinese. I can probably only have a once a week class, but homework or self-study wise, I can be pretty dedicated to review work on my own. Classes wise, I would probably only be available weekends, but this would depend on my school schedule. For a teacher, I guess I'm actually looking for someone more strict, since I really need someone who can nitpick at my pronunciation and mistakes. I like a teacher who is really precise and cares a lot about teaching and the language since I am also passionate about learning. Also, at the same time, I'm an easy-going, quiet kind of person, so I need someone patient and understanding . I also work hard, so I expect a lot of efficiency when it comes to teaching, as in a teacher who understands the student, and of course vice versa.
Thank you, and I apologize for this long-winded email.
Oh, and I'd also prefer group lessons, since there can be group conversations .

I am interested in learning malayalam because my grandparents speak it and I hope to one day visit Kerala where I have some family. I am not proficient at all therefore I need improvement in all areas. I can dedicate quite a bit of time in the summer but less during the school year.
