Hi, Nellie. I quitted studying at IH, nevertheless I still regard myself as a student. So your first question is addressed to me as well. I prefer teachers who have a gift for teaching, regardless whether they are native or non-native speakers. A teacher who aspires me, motivates me, who is sincere ...

Hi, Vlad! Yeah, even Longman acknowledges that 'likewise' could be used as a response to someone's greeting or polite statement. But what I am trying to say is IMHO word 'likewise' doesn't convey your genuine attitude towards the statement you respond to. I'll make an example. - I love you...(on the...

Hi, Nikita! You brought me really grim tidings(I believe I must use this word at least once). For me these clubs are the only possibility to polish my speaking skills and I am always looking forward to the next club session. It would be a blow to lose them. But even these "encouraging" news wouldn't...

Do Than
Hi, Nikita! I saw your shadow and even heard your steps on IH's stairs yesterday evening, but I didn't have a chance to see you in flesh and blood for I was guarding a room we had a lesson in. Nikita, you must have given the wrong address, because this reference doesn't work. In my perception it sho...

nigh/tidings
Hello, everybody!
From the last book I read I picked up a lot of new words. Here are two of them:
nigh - syn. almost, near
tidings - syn. news
I am wondering are they frequently used nowadays? Is it worth of incorporating them into my vocabulary?
