Please send me some questions in ENGLISH about this text.
If you can understand this text, please to formulate five questions , in SPANISH, about the most important ideas
TRANSBORDADOR: Embarcación para transportar pasajeros y mercancías entre dos puntos de tierra firme separados por una extensión de agua (río, lago, canal, etc.). Como transbordadores se pueden utilizar barcos, aerodeslizadores y avionetas.
El transbordador se utiliza normalmente para distancias cortas, para cruzar un río o bahía o para unir dos puntos de un puerto marítimo. Cuando el recorrido es corto y los viajes muy frecuentes, se utiliza un tipo especial de transbordador con la proa y la popa abatibles de forma que se pueda cargar y descargar por ambos extremos sin necesidad de girar en cada punto de embarque. Para trayectos más largos o más duros, como la travesía del canal de la Mancha o del mar del Norte, se utilizan barcos más convencionales con un diseño mucho más sólido. Por lo general, la mayoría de estas embarcaciones tienen una cubierta plana que facilita el embarque y desembarque de vehículos.
Los transbordadores tienen normalmente una o más cubiertas para vehículos y transportan pasajeros en la cubierta superior. Los transbordadores modernos están normalmente propulsados por motores diesel. Los transbordadores de patín aerodeslizador y de aerodeslizador, que transportan sólo pasajeros, son ampliamente utilizados en la zona del canal de la Mancha y en algunas partes de Europa; en los últimos años, los aerotransbordadores están alcanzando una gran importancia para el transporte rápido.
Los servicios de transbordadores se utilizan, por ejemplo, en el mar Báltico entre Copenhague (Dinamarca) y Malmö (Suecia), en el estrecho del Bósforo en Turquía, entre diversas islas japonesas y en los Estados Unidos, en el lago Michigan y entre Seattle, Washington y Vancouver (Columbia Británica).

EBC TEFL certification in Madrid
I was just wondering if anyone had heard of the company EBC International that certifies students in Teaching English as a Foreign Language in Madrid. Is it reputable? Does anyone know anything about the company? Know anyone who's studied with them?

Re:I wish to learn spanish
Bonjour Charles.
I've read a message in this board that has make me reconsider my travel plans for the next months.
It was someone who offered accommodation for anyone teaching him at his house.
I'm Alfredo, a Spanish 30 y.o. philosopher who wants to improve his English skills to a high level, and would love to learn French if I can do this way (accommodation for teaching)
It may be not the usual way, but if you are interested, please write me a message (I'm not a gold member) and we would talk about it.
Salut.

Teaching English in Russia
Hello,
My name is Marc and I am a native speaker of English. I have nearly completed a TESOL (i.e., Teaching English as a second language.) master's degree at West Virginia University in the USA. I desire to teach and do research studies in Russian toward a PhD. I speak intermediate Russian and would like to spend the summer of 2004 there teaching English as a start. I will return to the States in August 2004 to finish the master’s program. I will have more time to travel and teach after December 2004. So, I am looking to establish a long-term professional relationship with an established school or company if possible. I have experience with teaching small groups of learners using current teaching methodologies. I am a fan of VanPatten and others who motivate a communicative classroom. Lastly, I have a lot of experience in smart classrooms (computer-based learning programs), as I also program websites and certain types of software. I am interested in teaching K1-12 (e.g., Children up through young adults.) and older adults in either a private, professional or academic setting. I teach core and ESP (i.e., English Special Purposes).
Thank you,
Marc
