Hi Everyone

My fiancee took the 4 tests at Hopkins last week and obtained very poor marks as her english is not very good.
I am looking for some direction by the way of recommendations for tutoring as the next test date is July 3rd for S&W.

Could you let me know how you got through this part without any proper english language skills?

Also is there somewhere an explanation of what A1 actually means? My brain is fried on all of this!

We have sample tests and PDF's but the bottom line is she needs a Tagalog speaking tutor (prefer female) who can explain some of the words in a structured manner that will help her to pass these damn tests.. :)

Thanks and regards

Tone

Hi there!
Thanks very much! I'm going to ask her to join this forum, she is alone and could certainly do with some moral support.
Then she can get in touch about some tuition, help etc.
She's on FB a bit more than I'd like but I just want this English exam passed - it's just another hurdle that we will have overcome.
Thanks
Tone

Hiya
I cannot send you a private message with my Fiancees details - possibly because I have not been a member for long, so can you send me a msg perhaps to my FB - which is Tone Acharia.

Thanks
Tone

hello Tone,

A Basic Speaker

im willing to help your fiance if shes interested let me know :)

Hi, I'm actually in the process of scheduling my english test for Hopkins very soon. I'd like to help since I currently work at an english school in Alabang. This to me sounds more convenient for her since we can actually meet up (if you would prefer) and I can help her prepare for the test. I AM NOT OFFERING THIS HELP IN EXCHANGE FOR A FEE. I just feel like we already have enough to go through and a little help wouldn't hurt.

This is my email (email removed, for safety) Send me a message.

PS. This site has helped me in a lot of ways and I would also like to be able to help others the way it helped me. I'm getting married very soon so, best of luck to us both. =)

Sincerely,
Donna
