Cris, I agree! I’d love to live all over! I spent close to a year in Russia but other than that I’ve been in the US.

Patrick, learning does rule! Are you feeling the fire?

WOW, I love Russian. I wish I would have time to learn it. It’s the next language I’d love to speak. It’s so rare to find people that knows Russian here in the US though.

Hi Patrick! I am loving it as much as you are :)

Hallo, my name is Kathy. I am an American living in the Netherlands! I am enjoying my life here, but need to learn more Dutch! My sweety is from here, and of course, speaks fluent Dutch (he also speaks wonderful English) and I am trying to find ways to learn while he is out on his job. The flash cards on this site are awesome, and I have found that I know more Dutch than I thought I did – wish there were more videos, the pronunciation of the words is where I am most needing help! Thanks for a cool site!

Hi Everyone,

I am new here and want to introduce myself.

I just love it that I found a community that unites so many people and all the languages in the world. If I could I would speak each and every language there is. I love languages, other cultures and I love to communicate with people from everywhere.

If nothing else, I hope to make lots of friends from everywhere. Feel free to send me a message anytime.

Have a gorgeous day!

Hugs, :)
Cris

Hey Chris! Welcome to eduFire!

Cris and I just spoke and she’s great! :)

Thanks Marco, so are you!

Hi Cris

Welcome to eduFire! Great to have you here.

Welcome Cris! How do you like living in the US?

Thanks Stephanie!

Hi Christina, it’s not all bad. Where do you live?

Cris,

I also live in the US. In California actually. I was just curious how you liked it compared with other countries you’ve lived in.

wow this is so cool i mean OMG!!!! learning rules!

Oh OK. Well, this is only the second country I’ve lived in. I wish I could travel all voer though. Maybe someday…

Welcome Kathy, I think for starters you will love the edufire community. Then when you find yourself a good Dutch tutor you will have solved your pronunciation problem. How long have you lived in the Netherlands? How long do you plan to stay? I have a good friend at work who is Dutch and if he is any indication, the Dutch must be wonderful.

Thanks Susan! I have lived in the Netherlands for 2 months now, and plan to stay indefinately, as long as the Dutch Government lets me! =) I am loving the people here in this country, they are kind, and enjoy life! It will be nice to practice with a tutor.

Welcome Kathy! :)

Welcome Cris and Kathy!

Hello and welcome Cris and Kathy!

Thanks Kristie and Liz :)

hi cris just want to say welcome!

benvenuti a tutti i nuovi professori

mi correggo, un grande benvenuto a tutti i nuovi professori

Hi Kathy, well I think you are in luck; it looks like there are about 7 Dutch tutors on the site. You should pick one and do a free trial lesson. Maybe you will find the perfect one for you. Besides, you have nothing to lose.

Obrigada Clarissa! :)
Tanti grazie Marco! :)

Welcome to eduFire Chris & Kathy!!! See you around the forums!

Thanks for all the welcomes! I didn’t realize you could do a free session with the tutors, that’s excellent! I will give it a try!
