What is the difference between lîjiê and míngbái? Can you please give me an example? Thank you So while learning the word itself, I learned “understand” as lîjiê, but when I want to say “I don’t understand” I see that I should say “Wô bù míngbái.” Is it because it is in negative context? Could I say “Wô bù lîjiê” ? Would that be completely incorrect?

What is a fair price in your opinion?
We all come from different counties which have different costs of living, so my question today is- what is a fair price for a language tutor in your country? I noticed that 10 usd was to much for some of my students, so I lowered my price a bit, but since I live in Italy it is honestly very low for Italian standards. I would really like to find an optimal price that would be fair for both my students and myself and I would really appreciate your thoughts about this topic.

Local guide
Is anyone here a Google local guide maybe? If you are, have you applied for a Connect Live that takes place this November? We may meet in California soon, it would be cool to know in how many ways our lives are connected online. :)

What is the reason you are learning a new language?
Why are you learning a language you are learning now? Is it business, job interview, traveling or you are just interested in their culture? Let me know, I am really curious. :)

Easter traditions! :)
Every country has a different tradition, for example in Italy- Easter is today and most of people have bought a chocolate egg which they will have for a dessert. In Serbia on the other hand, Easter is in a week from now and everyone will have boiled eggs colored in many different colors in their house- but the first one to paint will be in red, and it is called "Čuvar kuće" meaning "House protector"- this is the egg that protects the house and everyone living in it. That is the only egg you won't break, you will keep it until the next Easter when you'll break it somewhere where are lots of ants (this means that everyone in the house will be a hard worker). There is also a traditional competition for the strongest egg! And it brings so much joy for both kids and adults. :) Practically you and your competitor will kick the pointier part of the egg with the other egg, and the same goes for the round part of the egg. Who's egg breaks loses! :D What is the tradition in your country like?

Are you ready for the summer? :) For people who live in 4 season counties summer preparation is so much fun! So are you guys ready? Are you visiting some new country this year? Did you took days off from work or booked your tickets yet? How is it going? :) For everyone who lives in any other country where the weather is steady or they live at the sea side, what are your plans? Do you prefer staying in your city or visiting some new beaches? :)  And how about the traditional "beach body" diet? Mine is going real bad this year xD

You never forget your first love I believe this phrase is said in every single country, but what do you think about it? Do you think this is true or false? Do you remember your first love?

I do remember my first love :) We are not really friends, we live in different countries and when I go back home and I see him, we politely salute one another and that is pretty much it, but it makes my day when I see that he is having a nice life and that he is happy. I really wish him all the best and think that he is a good person even though I don't even know him very well- it's been 10 years since we spoke last time (meaning that we said something more than "hello"), in that period people change, especially at that age, but I kinda feel that he grew up to be a good person.

So that would be my story, how about yours?

New Italki- No Instant tutoring/ No 45 and 90 min. lessons/ What do you think?

Can we talk for a moment about this big change that is about to happen on 2nd April? If I have to be honest I don't see the point of Instant tutoring removal? I don't believe this is a profitable move for Italki, so I am quite confused. 

The announcement starts with "You may remember that last year we released the <a href="https://beta.italki.com/">beta.italki.com</a> and promised to release optimized features for teachers in the future. On April 2nd 2019 we will be releasing a new teacher site, teach.italki.com." and then we can see that one of the changes is:

  -      Instant Tutoring will be removed and will be replaced with a new and improved feature in the future.


<o:p></o:p>

So my question is: Will Instant tutoring will be unavailable for a year, since last time they said "in the future" that is how long it took. :/<o:p></o:p>

it's a shame to shut this down, as many teachers and students find this a useful tool. I have some students who ONLY use Instant Tutoring, because of the flexibility.<o:p></o:p>

    -    45 minute and 90 minute lesson durations will be removed due to low demand and to simplify the lesson booking process.

<o:p></o:p>

Removing the 45 and 90 minute options surely is just reducing choice and flexibility for the customer? There are students that take 45 minute lessons on their lunch breaks and sometimes a 60 minute lesson is not sufficient to meet the objective of the class.<o:p></o:p>

Are you really trying to tell us that people don't understand the difference between 45 and 60 minutes? I'm not sure how this complicates the booking process at all. <o:p></o:p>

   -   The previous category named Informal Tutoring will be renamed Conversation Practice. Any changes made to Conversation Practice will not appear on italki.com other than the price.

Informal tutoring is NOT only Conversation Practice:Informal tutoring is way more than just Conversation Practice. I prepare my lessons more that my lessons actually last sometimes. I put a lot of work and effort in finding the best way possible to help my students. Grammar, tenses, CV translates, role-play for an interview, you name it and it can be found in Informal tutoring. This "Conversational Practice" is kinda offensive if I have to be perfectly honest. I am not having a coffee and chating with my students, sure there are some who make our job way easier and who really just want to talk with you, but in most cases that is not the case!

Community Tutors<o:p></o:p>

<ul style="margin-top:0cm" type="disc"> <li class="MsoNormal">Community Tutors will be able to create 3 lesson categories under the new lesson categories General and Conversation Practice. <a href="http://italki.com/">italki.com</a> allows the creation of 1 lesson category, <a href="http://teach.italki.com/">teach.italki.com</a> allows the creation of 3 lesson categories. Of the 3 lesson categories on <a href="http://teach.italki.com/">teach.italki.com</a> only the 1st lesson category will be shown on <a href="http://italki.com/">italki.com</a>

On a positive note the additional categories for Community Tutors is a useful development so thank you for that.<o:p></o:p></li> </ul>
