Do you fancy a chat?

I just had a student reschedule their class for tomorrow. So I am offering a chat to anyone who is around for half an hour/ 40 minutes. A sort of free trial: I like to roll the dice sometimes, see what happens...
First come first served. Just reply to this and I'll send you a link for voov or zoom or WhatsApp or Wechat or Skype (if we must).

If there's a silly (huge) number of responses, I'll keep the thing rolling each weekend (Saturdays and Sundays around 1pm to 3 pm UK time, until I have talked to everyone.
Just message me with a request for a 30 0r 40 minute chat. No charge. Does this break any rules? Jeez, I don't know. Probably.

Is this even the best place to just ask for inundations?

Maybe I should set some rules. No one aged less than 12 or older than 100. No-one aged between 22 and 32 - you don't yet know anything about life yet, or what you want in life, or who you are yet: Aha! Prove me wrong. Tee hee hee....

Answer

I've only gone and done it: For the remainder of 2024, I have set my trial class to just $5. But there are some rules. No-one aged between 22 and 32, under 5 or over 99. I'll probably still get into trouble, but who cares? - italki only brings me about 10 students a year anyway - and they seem to want AI to run the world. Heh heh. Wow, Satire?

Answer

Yeah - I don't think the rules allow me to do anything as remotely crazy as this. Seems I could set $5 trial classes. Boring. That would just attract low brow, bottom feeders, cheapskates and their friends, freeloaders, rather than inquisitive minds and free thinkers. Dang Nabbit.
