Exactly what I thought when I first found out that Jay was not a native speaker. She speaks (types? :)) English so well that I couldn't believe she was not a native speaker and then couldn't help wondering at the Czech education system but, I think, a lot of credit goes to Jay herself.Quote:

*gasp* you had English in elementary school????? wuuuuuargh, that's so unfair:bawling: over here it's still being introduced and they are retraining elementary school teachers who never studied English. So the kids pick up attrocious accents from them.Quote:

Do you mean "How does foreign language teaching work?"
If that's what you mean, I'll open a new thread to explain it later (:wave: hello Scher. Oh, all-seeing and omniscient moderator, where should I open that thread? In the seaching subforum or general chat?)
Nice interview, Jay! Born in December 1983? You guys just love to make an old man feel older, don't you? ;) I was 23, and had been married 4 years. :lol:
Times change Pen, Times change :lol:
Besides, as long as you do as you do, I don't know what old age you are talking about. :p
Hey, it's not my fault! I had very little say in when I was to be born :DQuote:
