Robert! It makes me so excited to see someone so enthusiastic about learning English. There is also an Assimil
English for Arabic Speakers: paramIdProduit=2923¶mIdMethode=2923">here. I think it's best to use it in your native language rather
than one you are still learning (especially Assimil).
Good luck with your studies! I'll be watching your log :).
Regards,
Ruskivyetr

Hi team mate, I'm looking forward to following your log this year! You certainly are ambitious; I counted five hours of studying per day! That's nearly half of what I usually clock in per week.

Hi Robert,
I wish you success studying your languages and I wish you and your family members happiness in 2011.
BTW were some friends or family members involved or injured by the bombing of the church in Alexandria?
How can someone take part on a TAC, has it to be on the same target language, I don't understand it clearly.
My heartwarming and sustaining greetings from Dutch-speaking Belgium.
Staf
