Portuguese and English:

Na/No = In the
this is different from English. English does not have an equal.

Em = In (Use to show where something is in Portuguese)


In is like Inside a box (for English) and On is On a box

Para = For/To

De = From

Hallo,

ich war ein knappes viertel Jahr beruflich in London (Rechtsabteilung einer Baufirma). Die Zeit wollte ich
vor allem nutzen, um mein Englisch zu verbessern. Es war nicht so einfach, eine adquate Mglichkeit
hierfr zu finden. Ich habe mir diverse Angebote
angeschaut und leider fast vier Wochen verloren, ehe ich das Passende gefunden habe. Ein Problem war,
dass es nicht so viel Angebote fr Leute gibt, die den ganzen Tag im Bro sind und erst nach 18.30 Zeit
haben. Sprachkurse wren nicht effizient genug gewesen. Auerdem htte ich zu viel Zeit verloren, um zum
Kursort zu kommen. Ich habe
also versucht "one-to-one" Trainer zu finden. Nachdem ich einige Sitzungen mit preisgnstigen Anbietern
hatte, die jedoch aufgrund nicht vorhandener Kompetenz nicht zielfhrend waren, habe ich etablierte
Anbieter probiert. Die waren leider teuer und unflexibel. In Woche fnf habe ich einen talentierten und
zuverlssigen "teacher" gefunden, mit dem ich sehr effizient bis zum Schluss durchgearbeitet habe. Er hat
meine Fehler sehr schnell analysiert und zielgerichtet gegengesteuert. Obwohl wir jeden zweiten Tag eine
Sitzung hatten, wurde es nie langweilig. Wir haben z.B. auch Themen vorbereitet, die
ich am nchsten Tag in Besprechungen abhandeln musste. Von Vorteil war auch, dass er ohne Zusatzkosten
nach Canary Wharf kam, sodass unsere Sitzungen im Anschluss an die Arbeit stattfinden konnten. Leute,
die in einer hnlichen Situation sind und nicht vier Wochen verlieren mchten, knnen "Pery" unter
folgenden Koordinaten erreichen: 07963960499 oder learnenglish@london.com.
