The Mixxer - Language Exchange Community for Everyone

English - Spanish Exchange

This group is for English-speakers who want to learn/practice Spanish. In Exchange, I ask to practice English. We can do it by means of a simple system, just following a few very easy rules. The idea for each session would be to speak 15 m in English and 15 m in Spanish through Skipe.

If you are interested, please, send me your profile (name, age, English and Spanish levels, topics you're interested in, your ideal time for the sessions, etc.)

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Carlos.

 

He creado un grupo para quedar a hablar, cambiando de idioma cada 15 o 20 minutos (Inglés, Español, y Portugués)

Después de ver algunos grupos me he animado y he abierto un grupo donde poder hablar sobre un tema que nos interese. Cada 15 o 20 minutos podemos cambiar de idioma para ir practicando en cada lengua. He propuesto tres idiomas: Español, Inglés y Portugués. El cambio de un idioma a otro dependerá de la lengua nativa de las personas de cada encuentro.

A ver si os animáis.

After seeing some groups I have encouraged to create a group where we can talk about an issue of interesting to us. Every 15 or 20 minutes we can change the language to practice in each language. I have proposed three languages​​: English, Spanish and Portuguese. The change from one  to another language will depend on the native language of the people in each meeting.

Come on

My opinion about education in Spain.

I will appreciate your corrections. A long time since I wrote here last time. Anyway, here I am again.Thank you in advance.


As a secondary school teacher this a very insteresting topic for me.

Firstly, we should ask what the real goal of the complusory education is or what it should be.

In Spain, Education is supposed to focus on creating free, critic and autosufficient citizens. With that in mind, I think that Education should be miexes (boys and girls togheter) and that schools should have mixed ability classes. Maybe this should be, at last, in public schools.

If we want to create the best scientifics, the best writers, etc. then we should reconsider all of that things or allow private schools to do what they want in order to achieve the best academid results. That may leads us to the problem of the richs paying private schools and increaing social differences, but maybe that could be avoided with a good and fair system of grants.

One of the principal problems in nowadays schools is the situation in wich teenagers with no interest and no possibility to obtain officials degrees are put into while they are waiting to be 16 and they can leave school; becouse, until then, they are obligued to attend school.

There are two kinds of those young men or women: the ones who sit at the bottom of the class and do nothing: no work, no speak, no listen, no pay attention... nothing. And just the opposite ones: only disturbing. None of them both take nothing positive of that. Neither the teachers, nor thier schoolmates; only politicians who have an umployee without being listed in the unemployment list and familys who have the kid out of the streets for free.

Another problem is the lack of pedagogical and psicological resources a teacher of secondary school has when she or he first enter in one class.


Thank you.

Dear Mr. Mc Culloug

 

Re: Your advertisement offering “summer on a farm”

Testing writing, Please, correct it

I was getting reeady for work when the bell rang. It was the postman bringing me a very particular parcel…

 

… I don’t remember well what it was my feeling in this moment, however I had the perception that something special it was just to happen. I didn’t hope anything refered to work because we had never received any parcel, envelope or box from anybody, in fact, it was the first time that I saw the postman. Neither the shape nor the colour of the box gave to me news.

 

I picked the parcel up from the postman, I gave to him my thanks and I started carefully to open it. My birthday wasn't near and neither anybody was felt in love with me… because of my curiosity, I was quite excited.

 

My obstacles in English: Top Three

I think that the most of Spanish people who is studying will be agree with me.

A letter to a friend

I will appreciate your corrections. Thank you in advance

Dear Mark:

I´m so happy to have received your letter. I think the sports camp is a wonderful idea becouse as you know I love doing exercise and practising sports. Have I ever told you my favourite sport is basketball?

Anyway, my back is thirty-six years old (as me!) and sometimes it hurts me, so I would prefer to sleep in rooms better than tents, if it is possible.

Ah! About the cooking I can say thatit will be an honout to me to cook a delightful spanish ommelette for you. All we have to buy for the ommelette are potatoes, onion, eggs and olive oil. I'm sure you will enjoy that typical spanish course.

Before going to the camp I will like to do some tourism in Toronto. You know I still don't know your city and I guess you will be a terrific tourist guide for me. Only one compulsory visit: an NBA Raptors game, please. I haven´t checked the dates and the scheduled games but it would be incredible to see my fellow countryman Pau Gasol playing with the Lakers in Toronto.

I think that's all. See you soon, I'm looking forward to it.

Cheers!

Hi everybody!

¡Hola a todos - otra vez!

Bueno, todavía busco los que queiren cambiar su conocimiento de español (peninsular) por mi conocimiento de inglés estadounidense.  Ya puedo escribir español suficientemente bien para mis necesidades (por lo menos de momento), entonces lo que busco son oporntunidades de hablar con alguien mediante el video de Skype.

Por lo tanto, los que solamente quieren 'chat', o sea sólo cambiar mensajes escritos, habrá que buscar otra pareja.

Gracias y hasta pronto.

Patrick
