What do you think about this?

We Answered:

I think one of the reasons may be the fact that they have a lot of exposure to casual English that interferes with the proper way of spelling and grammar. Also as all native speakers of any language, those who make spelling / grammatical errors may be using their intuitive knowledge of their language rather than rules to decide what is correct and incorrect.
Nonnative speakers of English, on the other hand, encounter other types of difficulties when writing or speaking: the proper use of the prepositions, pronunciation, intonation, word stress, sentence stress, interference of the first language, the culture to mention only a few.

What do you think about this?

People who learn English as their first language speak and write the vernacular version . . . A textbook gives a much more formally standardized "education" than does real life. There is also the factor that foreigners feel pressure to make up for other aspects of speaking the language (like heavy accents, etc.) My grandmother was a Norwegian immigrant and was very strict with her kids on grammar because she herself had a thick accent, which held a certain social stigmatism in her day. I'm an American who has taught English as a foreign language in China and here in the U.S. and I definitely agree that overall my students' spelling is much better than that of native peers their same age in the U.S. I'm not saying either way is better, but the differences are interesting nonetheless.

Where is it cheaper to live in for a student: Italy or France?

We Answered:

It is definitely cheaper to live in Italy. France is a very expensive country to live in, especially Paris! Unless you only decide to eat bread for lunch everyday (but even that is more expensive than in other places). It's about 4 euros (about 8 US dollars) for concentrated orange juice, just in a sketchy restaurant.

Choosing the right fashion school for me....?

We Answered:

Central St Martins is recognised as being the best but you need to be able to sew and have a really good porfolio to get in. I went to London College of Fashion which is a bit more accessible but its still well recognised and the lecturers are good as arae the work placement options

College and Educational Problem?

We Answered:

Firstly, why aren't you taking a Music A level? You would fly through it you only need to be like grade 5 to get through it. I think you should definitely take that if you can especially since it's what you want to do. Can you take English on it's own next year? Because English and Music really compliment eachother. Maybe you should drop the environment science as well if you need to because it sticks out a bit and doesn't really go with the rest of your subjects. Are you Grade 8 in playing an instrument too? Also if you want to be a teacher Pshycology is definitely useful it's probably better then sociology because it is related with teaching.
