| Description |
I would like to learn Farsi out pure curiosity and for my own personal enjoyment. It is possible that one day it could be of professional value to me, but for now I would just like to begin exploring the language. I currently have absolutely no knowledge of Persian, and as I am a full-time student, can only dedicate a minimal amount of time to studying each week. (2-5 hours) I am looking for a teacher who is a native speaker and easy going.

| 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 .
