Masters of the English language

Post by Takiap »

Hey guys, are any of you qualified English teachers - that is, teaching English to English speaking people. If not, do any of you have a really strong grasp English grammar?

Could really do with a bit of help regarding a stupid bloody grammar test.....lol.

How can I help you Mr. Tagiap? I've been teaching for a few years, so have a pretty good understanding of the lingo.

It depends on what areas your test is focused on Takiap. I would be happy to help free of charge by email, phone or skype but I would need to know what areas of grammar you will be tested on and also, and more importantly , how much time do you have to aquire the said area of grammar. Let me know anyways.

If it's a general grammar course, about 2 hours everyday for a year should cut it. If you can focus on a certain area a few hours a day for a week will have you fly by.
