Hi Torsten
Nice to have your response.I am from Iran and actually study and teach English but I think that I still need to work on my English to make much more progress.I think that this forum would be so helpful for all of the ESL learners and we would be able to rely on it.

Salaam سلام; Hamidp, it's great to hear you study and teach English in Iran! I'm so glad to have the opportunity to share ideas and experiences with you. Please tell me more about your situation. Where do you study and how many hours do you teach? Who are your students and what materials do you use? I hope it's OK if I ask you all these questions.

Many thanks,
Torsten
PS: What does your name mean in English?
