I wish!! Here in the UK teachers are paid diddly squat and get loads of abuse hurled at them every day. I really have no idea what possessed me to pursue such a career!! I have actually just finished a web design course so am hoping to change careers very shortly!

Thank you, littlefranciscan, but I don't think so. My knowledge of German, as an example, is very small.

English is my first language, as a child I learned a bit of German, Arabic and Spanish, but didn't retain much except the spanish and that is only because I live in Texas and there are a lot of spanish speaking people here.
