Hi,
Thank you for your much appreciated support ,and the way you had prepared me for my interview.
If I had to give details about the day of my interview, I'd say, we were group of nine people, and first we filled in all of the applications. Shortly after that I was called in to be interviewed.
The interviewer asked me a few questions and I answered them all with confidence.
The interview lasted only twenty minutes, and I was very happy with the way in which I had answered all of the questions. _________________ If you need me, I'm here. |

Well, for one thing, there is no call whatsoever for past perfect here. I suggest:
Dear Mr [surname],
Thank you for your support and your help in preparing me for my interview. It involved a group of nine people. First, we filled out all the application forms. Shortly after that, I was called in to be interviewed. The interviewer asked me several questions, and I answered them with confidence.

Mr. Torsten, I did Lesson 10 and I make two mistakes, my score was 8 to 10.
I wrote "Why he is" instead of "Why is he" I wrote I'm not often travelling" instead of I don't often travell
I did these next examples fot questions:
Who likes to share this chocolate with me? What does Picasso pictures feel you? Which is more interesting to watch television or to read a book? Where are my parents going out? When does the dinner be served? Why is the weather so rainy? Whose sweater is these? How do yo do for to be always in good mood?
I listened to Sue, as always she is so clear that is nice to hear she again.
I wish to write in english as you "one day"
Best regards Leonor |

Both 'pursue one's interests' and 'a pack of lies' are fixed phrases. _________________ Native English teacher at Mister Micawber's |

| Mr. Torsten, Good afternoon. I would like to write you, but I don't know how to enter in a forum, in another lessons I could find out MESSEGE, this time NO. Sorry, If I make a mistake. For me I say a word and I tell a story. "Advanced" it's an important word, it is not for me, and I am afraid that never I would overtake this position is only for people who really knows english language. I am only a learner and in my opinion only you can decide if I can to climb one step.I studied english for years and years and I think it's not easy. Say vs. Tell: I answered 6 questions out of 10. In the sentences there are words that I have never known and I have a doubt how to use it. Thank you, next time I hope I would find the forum. Best regards . Leonor Just now the computer's teacher is coming to teach me how to enter in a forum, I think I could do it after today. |

What is the name of that picture which you are looking at on the wall.
In above sentense one is poniting out a thing which not near and can be some where else by using "that" and "which" is use to link this thing.
Are you going to see that film that is on at the cinema next week?
In above sentence "that" is used twice once to pointing thing and second to link it.
Please correct me if I m not.
Best Regards Mujahid |

You need a question mark after the first sentence, Mujahid. Otherwise, they are fine and your explanations are fine. _________________ Native English teacher at Mister Micawber's |
