Too late to sleep

July 21st, 2007 · No Comments

Language levels and communication

July 14th, 2007 · No Comments

I travel to put on training courses probably 5 or 6 times a year and I am always amazed at how well everyone else speaks English. Other countries have a better attitude about learning languages in my opinion, with children learning other languages at a very early age.

Taking my 3rd trip to Singapore in July.  I will be there for a week conducting a training course.  I have always wanted to go on the night Zoo tour that they have there so hopefully I will have a
