noemi: Agnieszka, Hello from Lincoln

I have found this forum recentlty and I am realy happy because it's excatly what I was looking for.
Something about me...My name is Agnieszka and I'm from Poland but now I live in Lincoln(UK). I have finished my Mechanical Engineering studies last year. In my opinion this forum is perfect oppportunity to improve my english and instead I am convience that I can help you with your polish as my polish is fluently. I hope you will forgive me any mistakes:)

Welcome to PF Agnieszka

Hi and welcome to the forum, hope you have fun here.

How long have you been in the UK and are you planning on studying anymore?? What do you think of Lincoln???

P.S. don't worry about your mistakes, i have seen a lot more people on here write less competently than you :)

lovethdioh44@yahoo.com

wow wow wow hold on their pilgrim, what sort of an introduction is that??? I mean really give a lady a bit of respect. Where is the 'Hallo' or 'Welcome' or even 'if you would like to talk then PM me' but no its Mr.lovethdioh44@yahoo.com, exactly what sort of stunt is that!!!!!

I hope too:) I have been in the UK for several months. Atually, I am looking for a job as a graduate. At first I thougt that my english isn't very good but now I see that it's better and better with every day:)
What I think about Lincoln???
Hmmm...Lincoln is rather small city with many traditions. I don't have many friends here, but I think that people here are very kind and benign.

what sort of work do you want, i mean job type??


yeah there is no need to worry, i can assure you, there are people on this forum who's first language is English and speak it worse than you :)


well as i'm from the UK myself, i just thought i'd ask your opinion on where you are staying. I'm glad you find it plesant and its different going to somewhere like Lincoln rather than London or Manchester etc etc where everybody else seems to settle.

Welcome Agnieszka. Good luck with the job hunting

I am looking for a job which will be connect with mechanical like turbine or renewable energy. I can be be also CAD design:)

sounds interesting and way out of my field of work, lol, turbines and renewable energy, sounds like a power station or somewhere like that may be a good place to start, although i'm not sure as i'm not an expert at all in Mechanics. The only mechanics i now about are car mechanics :)

Going back to you level of English, did you have private lessons in Poland?? i ask because i don't believe that you have learnt all your language from just normal classes at school :) Do you think you will stay in England for a longer perod of time if you find a job that you like??

T

I really enjoy Mechanics especially project of wind farms or offshores. For some people
it sounds very strange when I say "I am Mechanical Engineer" and they do not believe me:)

ow i see what you mean now by 'Mechanical Engineer' i think i was confused before but now i understand. There are plenty of new porjects starting in this country that are linked with renewable energy inlcuding wind farms etc and using the power of the see to produce energy for the country. I think the only issue i have with renewable energy like the two i've ust mentioned is that you can only use them when they are available, for example, when the wind is blowing or the sea is rough. Lol what am i doing discussing something i know nothing about, you know all that already, hahaha.

My level of english....Hmmm. I did not have any private teacher in Poland, but you have right - English in our country isn't enough when you are going to come to the UK.
If I find a job here I am going to stay for a longer period.

I suppose the best practise can be found in actually speaking the language to people who speak it, its not just the importance of the past, present, future and all the other tenses we have, its the actual day to day conversation which is the most important, i'm no teacher but sometimes i feel that language is made over complicated by teachers.


well i hoipe however long you stay, you enjoy your time here :)

You have right of course. Conversation is the most important, tenses are important as well, because you have to write correctly:)
What a shame that you are not from Lincoln:(

Tell me something about you if it's possible:)
A

yes of course tenses are important too, i was not disguarding them only commenting that to start with simple conversation is the most important when moving to a new country.


lol, yeah i'm actually quite far away from Lincoln


hhhmmm well my name is Karl, yes its a German name but i'm English (British). I live in a city called Exeter which is in the South West of the country, in a county called Devon. I'm here to complete my studies in business and IT which i am currently in my final year. M

As for my family my mother is English and my father is Scottish, they live in other parts of the country from me, i live with my housemate.

hope thats a start enough for you :)

Hi Agnieszka!

Welcome to the forum! I just joined yesterday, and this stuff is totally addictive!
LOL!

And I thought we were from Lincoln, Nebraska and was beginning to feel sorry for you. But maybe Lincoln in the UK is just as bad. ;-)

And regarding the level of English, I guess it all depends were you went to school in PL, if you know what I mean. :-)

Nice to meet you Karl:) I heard something about Exeter but I don't remember what:) Anyway I know where is it.
I hope that you complete your studies soon:)

well if you remember, drop me a line and tell me, i'm always interested in what other people have heard or think about where i am living.


thank you very much and good luck in your hunt for a job :)

Welcome noemi, enjoy the forum.
