extra income

August 30th, 2005 at 04:56 pm

Well, I'm still looking into opportunities for extra income...today, I answered an ad in the paper offering positions for freelance English teachers...it said you could apply for M-F to teach from 6-7pm, so I did...the only thing is, it said Native English Speakers, but, I'm hoping they overlook that, given my level of English proficiency and, also, given that I DO have experience teaching English...will see what happens....

    You're not a native english speaker? That doesn't come across in your writing at all. Do you have an accent when you speak? I don't notice any strange syntax in your posts.

    Thanks for the compliment! ...I'm Salvadoran, I had English classes 3 hours/week from the age of 12-16, then 5 hrs/week...What I studied at the University was "Teaching of English as a Second or Foreign Language" (a consolation prize, because they didn't have Translation and Interpretation...every job I've ever gotten has required me to speak English on a daily basis...that's A LOT of practice! LOL!
    I have been told I have a Californian accent when speaking English - whatever that means! lol!....We did a lot of phonetics at the University to try to soften the Latin/Hispanic accent...
