week 4 Я учу русский четыре недели. я знать не идеальна но я учиться.

The Way I Like To Learn. We all learn things in different ways and that is great but for me, not having a proper education to really speak of found in my late teens, early 20's the best way for me to learn. I never really knew when I was a kid blowing up plug sockets and breaking toys, that what makes me tick and really when I start to learn is by pulling something to pieces to see how it works. This style of learning got me working as a teacher in a primary school within a year as opposed to sitting down copying out of books or listening to a teacher. I am applying same method to learning Russian here on italki. I am starting buy learning alphabet and writing Russian, even though don't understand the words just getting to grips with individual sounds and their visual representation is paying off. I know as soon as can say it and read it regardless of understanding then will be a very short time before fluent enough to have conversations. who else works this way or is it just me.

Thinking Of Teaching English.

Hello all, you probably have seen a few posts by me already as learning Russian as a second language. The more I use this site though, the more I am thinking of becoming a teacher of English. I have worked as a teacher in a primary school, teaching ICT but never english and not sure where to start. My first plan would definitely be to teach as a community tutor, as it takes the pressure off a little and possibly study a TEFL course or something. My question really is could you guys help me out on tips for getting lesson plans, is there some kind of online source for such things or do I have to create my own?

Thanks all in advance,

Darren.

Question About Russian Language Can you please tell me is  grammar  and punctuation  the same in Russian  as English?  Would I structure  sentences in the same way with comma's  etc .

My Learning Thus Far Well things are going pretty good both with spoken and written Russian. I can now introduce myself in writing "привет, меня зовут Даррен.", which I don't think is to bad as only been learning to write since the night before last.

love multi language keyboard I am learning Russian and on my android phone I have set the Russian language in the settings, so now can easily flick between languages just by swiping the space bar. What I love most though is the predictive text still works in Russian so helps me to remember as type. Definitely recommend this to anyone learning new language, specially language like Russian or Chinese where learning new characters.

my learning plans for the next year Well I plan to spend the year studying, not for business or anything like that, just for fun. The plan is to learn 4 languages by end of the year starting with Russian. Many say this is impossible but I have to try and although I have never tried to learn a new language before, I think I am doing really well and just installed the Russian keyboard on my phone. my next notebook entry will be written in partly Russian :)
