Hello everyone!

I'm suggest you try paltalk.com and maybe we will organize our talks
on this platform. It's web-site where people could orginize rooms and
communicate. You could download programm for pc and use it or
communicate with web-site.

So, when we all try it, we could start out talks again!

I'm waitting for your answers.

Hello Mikhail Gail Ed Reinaldo Chaya Briana Oshiro Jason Vera Claire
and all,

I have something interesting but a little difficult for us to do here.

Since the beginning of the month,I've had a new BEC Vantage group to
teach.
Coincidentally it's a group of all 5 charming and witty women aged
from mid twenties to late thirties whileas an old BEC Higher group is
all 4 knowledgeable and witty men aged from late twenties to early
thirties.LOL

This new group of 5 women has never talked on Skype or any other
online chats.
I asked them yesterday evening to take this group talk as an
assignment of theirs...

It's an opportunity for them to know what it is called 'video
conferencing' or 'teleconferencing',then we'll have a discussion on
the advantages and disadvantages of these facilities.

I hope to come up with 2 different schedules to suit both their and
your timetable for the talks!
It has to be on the weekend,and our time(CET is 6 hours behind China,5
hours behind Vietnam,3.5 hours behind India,and 5 hours ahead of Sao
Paolo,Brazil)

If any of you is interested in this group talk which will possibly
take place in late November and early December,please let us know!!!

Don't miss this opportunity to meet them!The more responses they
get,the more difficult for them to get cold feet!!!LOL

Looking forward to your feedback!

Good night!

Hello members,

Dear Pln, I think that it is really an opportunity for us to improve
English. A great progress can to be done if everyday is a small
acquisition positively.
My oral English is not good because it is not my native language. So I
hope that you all can give me a help. ^_^
I feel interested in attending in this online conversation. I book a
seat ^^

Sincerely,
Jun

Hello Mikhail Jun Ed Jason and all,

I browsed a little this paltalk just now and wonder if any of you has
tried it out.
I don't mind using any online chats as long as I don't need to
download any softwares.

The most important and challenging part of a group talk is to come up
with the most suitable time to meet with others from other time zone.
I talked with another 2 man students this evening and they expressed
their interest in joining it,too.

According to my schedule for the time being,I most probably can join
the chat for 60 minutes
1)on Saturday or Sunday at 22:30=24:30 St.Petersburg=17:30 Sao
Paolo=15:30 Colombia
2)on Tuesday at 13:00=15:00St.PTB=16:30 India=18:00
Vietnam=19:00China

If you prefer a different time,please specify the time and day.

Thanks and good night!

Dear all interested in our upcoming group talk,

I still can't give you the specific dates as when the group talks will
be held in November or December with me.
Charles,Jun and I had a trial group talk this past week and it went
quite well,didn't it,Charles and Jun?;)

As far as I'm concerned,anyone who'd like to talk to anyone else here
just needs to give others your Skype name and add them as your
contact.If you'd like to talk to more than 1 at the same time,just
click on'add people' on the top right box!

As soon as I know my schedule for sure,I'll let you all know.

And the most important thing I want to say is it's Mikhail's 22nd
birthday this coming Tuesday,isn't it,Misha?!;)
Don't forget to come back here or to log on your facebook.
I have a little something for you as well!;)

Beautiful Sunday,Ali(warm welcome to this cozy family!!!)Gail Jun
Oshiro Jason Charles Claire and all!

Dear Pauline, Jun, Jason, Vera, Oshiro and all other good people,

What a great Idea to have a group talk! We are genius. ha ...

The trial group talk with Jun was going quilt well. We have talked a
lots of topics, which are very interesting.
And finally, Jun introduced her girl friend to me, hoping we'll have
another nice talking.

The interesting thing is that Jun asked me make a promise not to steal
his girl friend because that I am so charming.ha...

Looking forwards to the group talk.

Thanks Ed!

It was a strangely interesting experience for someone like me.

Charles dragged a history professor who also tutors on EduFire to the
chat without my consent.LOL
He said:"I'm from Ohio.",and I asked a silly question:
"Where is Ohio?Is it near Colorado?"

He didn't need to answer it as I knew I was totally wrong by the
laughter he made.
Oh,good heaven,he was awaken by Charles' Skype call!!!

Then he wanted to drag Bruno,a new Brazilian member who added me as a
contact a couple of months ago without sending him some words first.I
saw his status(orange light on) which means he's away...LOL

As I learned my lesson with the prof earlier,I warned Charles not to
drag Bruno without his agreement.
Happy ending,finally!We both learned a Portugese sentence with
Bruno...And that was the time he wasn't that shy.
"Don't be shy"in Portugese!!!LOL

The end of my report of this afternoon's Skype group talk!:)
Good luck to you and your next group talk,Ed!LOL

Hi, Pauline and all friends.

Pauline .. Did you have good Christmas? I would like to add your ID.
I can't connect day-time in my office, because of firewall.
and I usually connect to learn English with my friend everyday who

Thank you.

Hello Rui Edward Pablo Chaya and all,

Please add me as your Skype contact...with pleasure!:)
It's pln471 exactly the same as my gmail account.

Whenever you see me online,send me an instant message.
If I'm free to talk,I'll respond to you right away.;)
If I' don't,I'm probably busy posting,teaching real time
students,looking for class materials or chatting with other friends or
net acquaintances...:P

I had an exhilarating time this Christmas as always with my Polish in-
laws...
eating dishes and cakes painstakingly prepared/baked by my mother-in-
law,drinking red wine,singing Chritsmas carols and chatting with one
another sharing our life stories around the big dining table...
It's a life well worth living whenever I indulge myself in moments
like those!:P

How was your Christams?
It didn't snow here,either at Christmas.It's zero degree Celsius right
now according to Pablo's tool bar!;)

Thanks Pablo,Little Drummer Boy is my all time favourite Christams
carol!

Best wishes,
Pln
