Hello Harry,

Welcome for joining our community, it's great to have you around. Do you work for a state school in Moscow?

Hi, Torsten!
Yes, I do. But it's a multicultural school. I'm allowed to use my own methods of teaching. Besides this I am giving private lessons to earn my living.
Best wishes, Harry

Sounds very interesting, Harry. Could you please tell me more about your "multicultural school"? How is it different to other schools in Moscow? Also, how to do you find students for private tuition and where do you teach them?

Thanks a lot,
Torsten

Well, it's not very big. There are about 200 pupils. We teach English in groups(about 10-15) in each. It's very easy for me to teach as I have been teaching since 1977. I never use those old textbooks we have at school. I write lessons for my students and they really like them. There are a lot of clubs at school. The pupils study their first language besides Russian. We have teachers for all nationalities. As to my private tuition, my students find me and I teach them at their places. Smile

Hi Harry,
Do you know why I do not receive replies the way you do? Is it because my signature ? Or is it because people have negative attitudes towards Arabs in general and Palestinians in particular? But there is a fact that I would like every body to know : We-the Palestinians -are not so bad. We are a human type of race and we are like every body else.All of us are the sons of Adam and Eve. So Could you please forward my message to the Administrators who ,so far , ignored my entrence to the fourm ,though I was happy to meet people of the world . Please DO IT. Thank you.

Hi Muin,

Sorry for giving you the impression we are ignoring you -- I did read your introduction should have replied earlier. Of course I'm glad you have joined our community and we do want to share our experiences with you. We'll be more than happy to discuss any question with you here on the forum.
Regards,
Torsten

Hello Torsten,
Thank you for your reply. Now I feel alive so I can jive and dive into the depth of your sea to see what I can catch from your knowledge,free without a latch!! (excuse my being emotional)
You know well that people like to be a part of a group and this gives the sense of self esteem and value in the group and the society in general. Frankly speaking , I am happy to be one of you and to "dare to share" with you our experience.
Please give my compliments and respectfull regards to"G-six" i.e.the administrators:the Great Six establishers of this site.
Happy to hear from you again.
Yours,
Muin

Hi Harry

"Power to your elbow" for engaging in a profession that I have heard is very hard in your native country. I have a friend in Moscow who teaches, and said it is difficult considering that Russian is quite far away from English as a language. Also it apparently has a large vocabulary, as does English.

What do you think? Do you speak any other languages and do you find them easier than English?

Hi muin

I have not been on the forum for awhile and am not an admininstrator: But you should not feel that as you are from Pakistan that this is a reason you have been ignored up to now.

It is just a coincidence,, I think. And as I have friends in UK from your native country and worked with a lot of guys from there I am genuinely interested. What region are you from, and have you ever visited the UK?

Hello Stewart,
Nice to receive replies, thank you. You know that Gaza Strip is the most crowded areas on the planet and even politically the hotest in the region.
You may want to know about the educational system and the conditions of ELT here in Palestine. So I think it is my job to convey this to the world because we are colleagues, aren't we? We share the joys and the worries of the profession. Anyway, I hope you realised what I mean and understood the psychological state of "English under occupation and internal chaos"
Keep in touch good friend.
Bye
Yours,
Muin

Hi Muin

Nice to meet you.
Can you tell us more about English in the Gaza Strip? What sorts of English classes do you teach? What age(s) are your students? And what about your interest in music? Can you tell us more about that?

Amy

PS
Your reference to the "G-Six" on this site was a very clever turn of phrase. Wink
