I am interested in learning foreign languages for travel and also just as a personal interest. I took 4 years of French in high school, but did not retain much of it. I am a beginner. I would like to devote 2 hours or so per week for class. I would like a teacher who is flexible, and fun.

Saludos. I would like a weekly lesson of an hour to two hours of Spanish private tutoring in my home in Denver Colorado. I am willing to pay $20.00 per hour for each lesson. I want to be able to read Spanish writing and poetry in the original, to speak reasonably fluent Spanish and gain a deeper appreciation of the Spanish language. I would like a native speaker from Spain, Mexico, or Central or South America with a good accent, who has an enthusiasm for Spanish literature music and poetry. I have a haphazard grasp of Spanish, which means that I can read and understand normal Spanish with some help from my dictionary, but I would be very happy if these lessons help me to attain conversationa l and writing fluency in this lifetime if that happens to be possible. I would like a tutor who can find a good balance of structure and fun, meaning someone who can integrate a lesson plan of grammar and fluency skills with Spanish short stories, music, magazine or newspaper articles, poetry and other aspects of Spanish culture. I consider a kind, pleasant and easy going temperament in a teacher a big plus. I would prefer an older teacher to a younger one, but this is only a preference and not an absolute requirement.
I live 10 to 15 minutes North of downtown Denver. I have a dog, so I hope you are not allergic to them. I would prefer afternoon or evening lessons as I am not an early riser. I am a 57 year old retired employee of the state of Colorado. I was born and raised in Sri Lanka, and English is my first language.

My interest in the Thai language was germinated from a Prospective relationship. I recently met a woman from Thailand who speaks a little english. While she is learning english I want to learn Thai to share communication s with her.
I have some thai books and cds but the language is daunting. I speak English and Spanish, and have studied German, Chinese, Russian, French and Malay. Thai is much more difficult than these languages.
I am still a rank beginner, being able to read and write less than half the alphabet. Pronunciation is not a problem if I have a good model to follow. The grammar seems a bit confusing for me.
I am hoping for a tutor on a weekly basis to help guide me thru my studies. I am hoping to have developed a comfortable conversationa l proficiency in 6 months, up to 1 year. I also want to be able to read and write basic Thai.

To Whom it May Concern,
I am seeking a Pashto language instructor for career advancement. I graduated from law school in May 2010 and will be taking the February Florida Bar Exam. Upon completing (and passing) the Bar Exam, I will likely be traveling overseas to the country of Afghanistan as a lawyer-mentor with a private US contracting group. The said company has contracts with the United States Army and other military & government organizations in several different countries. Because my initial proposal was to employ in Afghanistan, I will be better suited for the final offer for the position if I am able to have a basic knowledge of the country's most spoken language, Pashto.
My proficiency level is an extreme beginner. I have not experience with Pashto whatsoever and very little knowledge of the Arabic language in general.
The areas with which I would like to focus on are as follows: 1). A basic understanding of the language, 2) . Emphasis on the conversationa l aspect of the language, 3) . A basic understanding of the proper grammar of the language.
After speaking with others who have learned from the Pashto language as beginners, I believe I would need about a 2 month period of time and dedicate 3-4 days/week or 12-15 hrs/week. I have completed 7+ years of higher education and the one thing I am certain about is my learning style; therefore, I know I need to put in long hours, more repitition per week for a shorter time period as opposed to shorter hours, few meetings per week for a longer time period.
As far as the prospective teacher I am seeking, I strongly prefer to have someone whose native language is Pashto and speaks near-perfect English. I have found in previous language courses that the English barrier for some teachers can be the result for failing to fully understand the language I am learning. Thus, it is mandatory that my teacher have proper English & grammar so that his/her translation from the Pashto language to me is smooth & accuraate. I prefer a teacher who has a background or strong understanding of the Afghan law & legal field as this will be the area with which I will be servicing.
As far as the prospective lessons are concerned, I would prefer to have something fast paced & interactive. I am able to best retain information when I have to repeat what has been taught to me by either oral methods or written methods, therefore, I request to stray from the lecture-orien ted lesson plans.
In closing, my work will be require me to engage with Afghan nationals on a daily basis. Although interpretors are provided for every employee of the company, I would like to come to the table with a better understanding of the language & ability to communicate myself, if ever needed. In addition, the knowledge and understanding of the language will help to add preference to my candidacy as these positions are competitive.
Thank you for your time & consideration .
Kind Regards, VH
