Technology and eEducation (An Informal lLetter to a fFriend) Technology and Education (An Informal Letter to a Friend)

Hi, Teresa, Hi, Teresa,

I suppose this is part of your PhD, doeisn’t it? I suppose this is part of your PhD, isn’t it?

I suppose this is part of your PhD, doeisn’'t it? I suppose this is part of your PhD, isn't it?

Formal: (see correction above) Informal: "Isn't this apart of your PhD?" I'd personally prefer the informal version heavily. Most people would read the formal version and think you're a 19th century British author.

I suppose this is part of your PhD, doeisn’t it? I suppose this is part of your PhD, isn’t it?

I af so, I'm excited to help you. If so, I'm excited to help you.

Make sure you link this sentence with your prior one. You want your ideas to flow smoothly. Also, make it easy for yourself, use the contraction "I'm" to mean "I am". "I'm" is perfectly acceptable in any context formal or informal.

As you already know technology has been particularly important to improve my speaking skills in English throughcrucial in improving my English speaking skills by letting me exchanginge languages with you. (I would add by what means, like through e-mail, video chatting, etc.) As you already know technology has been crucial in improving my English speaking skills by letting me exchange languages with you (I would add by what means, like through e-mail, video chatting, etc.)

Crucial means extremely important and I thought it would be better here. 'Letting me' would mean to give you the opportunity to do something.

As you already know, technology has been particularly important toin improve my speaking skills in English through exchanging languages with youing my English language speaking skills. As you already know, technology has been particularly important in improving my English language speaking skills.

Two things. First off, use the present progressive. You are improving your skills. Second off, keep your sentences concise. There's no need to add the last part of "through exchanging languages...", it's implied that your audience knows that. Also, separate your clauses with a comma.

As you already know, technology has been particularly important in improving my speaking skills in English through our exchange sessions.

In my opinion, teachers (at schools) in any country should starttry to consider this ideadoing this for their students. In my opinion, teachers (at school) in any country should try to consider doing this for their students.

You don't have to use school since we are talking about teachers. 'Should start' is fine but I chose 'should try' as it means to suggest and encourage doing something.

In my opinion, teachers at schools in any country should start to consider this idea for their students. In my opinion, teachers at schools in any country should start to consider this idea for their students.

Good usage of the comma, this is what you should have applied to the last sentence above.

There are tons of information about any topic one is interested toin. There are tons of information about any topic one is interested in.

Remember, you're writing to someone. It's ok to address them in the second person. Also watch out for "to" and "too". They mean two different things. (Did not mean to make that extra pun at the end lol)

First off, watch for your grammar. Make sure you are also using the right form of the word (expert vs expertise, altruist vs altruistic). Also, you're just writing a letter to your friend, not an essay for a course at Yale. You can tone down the vocabulary just a bit. I wouldn't use words like expertise and altruist, or phrases like "clarify your doubts". It may come off a bit pretentious.

Don't use moreover. I know it's super formal and cool, no one actually says it when they speak. The only time English speakers use "moreover" is when a student uses it for an essay, and even then, they don't know how to use it. It's just sounds pretentious. Also watch out for the grammar here. It's can not could in this case, it's by not the, and it's from not by. Watch for your prepositions.

Contrast doesn't work in this context. Use the expression "side by side" when talking about comparing information. It's widely used and can help you in this context. Also trustable is not a word.

Pair down some of your filler words in this sentence. Make your meaning clear. Also, I added this fun expression we use sometimes, "by the same token". We use it in the US when we have a slightly complicated opinion on something. We use this expression like this when we feel divided on an opinion. For example, we feel one way about this side of an issue, but we don't go as far as to (fill in the blank). You get the idea. I can't say if the British use it, I've never been to England, but I'm American and we use it in the states.
