structure of the clause is simple and basic.

For an intermediate class, I will teach “Roger, this is (my friend) Paula” for introducing context.

For an advanced class, I will teach “I would like you to meet Paula” , “Allow me to introduce
Paula” because the structure is relate to linguistic (politeness)
