Hi,

The thing about being born a native speaker of English is that you don't feel it's necessary to learn another language. But that shouldn't really be an excuse for not doing so and that's one of the reasons why I'm all in favour of Backing the Baccalaureat. Let me tell you more. You can read the essay here: Backing the Baccalaureat

Hi Alan,

I've already bought a soft copy of your book English Grammar through Stories and have taken a print-out. It's indeed a very nicely written book and is very helpful, especially for those who want to improve their language skills. I wish I could get a hard copy of the book. But I guess it's only available online.

I'm not very good at computers and hence don't know how to put all the mails I have received from you, together in a folder which I can access offline. I would be grateful if you can help. Is it possible to burn CDs of the lessons that you send me?

I've benefitted a lot from this course and have recommended this site to a lot of people. Do you also have any such programme in the German language? If yes, please let me know.

I look forward to your reply and receiving more mails from www.english-test.net

Warm regards,
Sona

Hi Alan:
I thoroughly agree with you. Although Englis is a universal language, there are a lot of other languages worth learning, like Spanish, Japanese and Chinese.

Hi everyone.Indeed is not enough to know English, there are so many languages we can study.For example, I love Italian and Spanish, I'm interested in their culture, history and customs and both of them are easy to learn.Currently, I'm studying Italian but unfortunately I don't have enough time to study it that's why I have an advise for the young persons to study while they have time and patience, in school because oportunities can show up from nowhere .Have a nice day.

Hi Mr. Alan,

All what you stated on the introduction part is absolutely right. You speak of exactly my problems towards how I think to learn English Grammar. I wrok strongly hard on my mind to remember or to study the grammar. Most of the time, I forget to consider learning English is just like how I feel when I speak or write through my native language.

Hi Alan

Thank you for email of small topic about the language.
But it was bit difficult to read and understand.
The words are heard to read.
In the 1st paragraph you are telling about their system and they are travelling to Europe, but them facing the problem.

If you give a question, I can replay to you.

I want to learn English more and more. Could you please sent more email.

Kind Regards

Yarlini

Hi Alan,

I like the essay but notice some thing as I went through the essay realized that your english was very high and my concern is that some of us are not that good in english, I am not saying you shouldn’t use, in fact it is good but I think we must go slowly and surely. I don't know if am wrong
