Why do teachers here not accept me as a student saying they are not taking new students?

It happen only once,

 

I know they have a right to do that, but why come here looking for students and then doing the exact opposite?

Milestones in learning

Someone explain this phenomenon to me, I pushed hard for three years, first  learning the  Russian alphabet, and using it to read, learning Russian grammar from 10 different books the  listening, to media that made sense( living language, pimsleur, podcasts, etc) and media  that didn't make sense, constantly reading, and when I had a chance to talk with a native speaker I tried, and it was miserable... fast forward, then I found myself being able to answer, albeit very sloppy, the questions in my grammar book exercise materials in Russian. so like my dancing there is a sweet spot in which to enlist, professional help, with that; I found a tutor and I found italki, in that sequence. Not I can speak better and better and the words I learn from these encounters and from my reading "stick better", "harder" and permanent; seem more easy to pronounce although these are more complicated than before. and the last thing it my brain is firing off Russian constantly in all form, words popping up, spelling of the words, talking to myself in Russian while dreaming, is this normal?

do they sell italki t-shirts?

I would buy one, but i am afraid if they did, it would be pink.
