You have studied English since you were eight years of age? You have done very well and not made any mistakes worth worrying about! I suppose if you wanted to be pedantic, you could say in your last line ' I hope I didn't make many grammatical mistakes?' To point this out is really nit-picking. I only mention it to help you achieve perfection!  Wink

I was mostly concerned with teaching older people, aged 17 years and upwards, although I also worked with younger students with special needs, teaching them literacy, numeracy, and communication skills. I was the Curriculum Leader at an Institute for Further and Higher Education here in the UK.

If you contact me by email via this website, I will help you in any way I can. I have written papers on education in Great Britain that you might want to have a look at.

It will be interesting to compare our systems, looking at the differences in funding; validation and assessment of teaching and learning; and the application of the curriculae.

I hope I hear from you soon,

(I hope I haven't made any mistakes either lol)

And if we wanted to be as pedantic as well, curriculum is neuter so the plural is curricula (like in media and data) , not curriculae Wink (sorry prof, I've been waiting for catching you on your grammar for years and as there's no chance for me of doing that in English, I had to take this opportunity LOL Tongue out)

Very well spotted Mari! You are quite correct. Those who live by the sword must rightly perish by the sword. I therefore fall on my sword!

I don't want to be pedantic but as you seem to be in the mood, and because I want to help you in your quest for perfection 

 I've been waiting for catching you on your grammar for years and as there's no chance for me of doing that in English

This sentence would be more gramatically correct if you were to say 'I've been waiting to catch you on your grammar for years and as there's no chance for me to do that in English ....etc.

Come on my wonderful friend, get your sword out too! WinkTongue out
