Hi Charles and all, I've been missing those few more active members here including you,Charles since my absence due to our move to the new flat and my untimingly illness!
I've read your most recent message today and I think this is the precise one I was meaning to reply to after my return to the groups,isn't it?;) You're surely in a predicament not knowing the goal of your life. But guess what? You're not the only one. There are millions and millions of people out there who are in search of the meaning of their lives as well. Some lucky ones may have found,and some unluckier ones may not... Whichever happens,life goes on. A lot of people believe success or happiness means owning a lot of money.I have been there,and I can tell you it didn't bring me much happiness.Happiness has to be doing what you enjoy doing! Bec is not that big deal as everybody thinks!LOL You are right that it uses the same range of vocabulary. If you are serious about passing BEC Vantage(upper-intermediate level),'Market Leader' intermediate and upper-intermediate edition should be the best to start from. I'm just a traditional ESL/EFL teacher who don't give online courses. I wonder how I may help you... Do you have any ideas yourself? As you mentioned in the message today,how to find a job that requires English is really a big problem for you now,isn't it? The first thing I can think of is to move to a bigger city where there are import and export companies or multi-national ones. Otherwise,try working for a publisher translating books or something. You used to work as a junior engineer,I know,but what kind of engineer? Can you tell me?I'm afraid I can't recall...:( I see.You're old enough to have a girlfriend.You must be 7 years old! LOL How old are you?John asked you before,but you didn't answer him earlier. My present flat is surrounded by two huge trees.When sitting in the kitchen or the living room,we can see doves,sparrows,or other kinds of birds perching and singing right outside our windows. The playground with green grass and a huge sandbox for my children to play on is right downstairs within a minute.;) I guess I'm quite lucky finding this new flat so close to my kids' primary school and kindergarten. Guess who found it for me?One old Polish student of mine! She's due to have a babygirl at the end of September!;) Nice week ahead of us all!
