DESCription:
English Tutoring for Students of the English Language.
This echo should be of interest to those who wish to improve their
command of English, and to those who wish to act as their tutors.
Participants may submit short texts for critique and discussion by
literate English speakers in English-speaking countries.
Discussions of points of grammar, usage, standard English
and regionalisms are welcome. Chatting is allowed, provided
the texts are viewed as language practice subject to
comments by the tutors and other students.
RULEs: {Verified}
Rules Content:
1. The purpose of this echo is to provide help with the use of the
English language. All of the following rules are directed toward
this goal.
2. Play nice and play fair. Be kind to each other. Be considerate of
and respectful towards all other participants. A helpful spirit is
mandatory.
3. No ridiculing. No personal attacks ("flames").
4. If anyone feels the need to right a perceived wrong, please notify
the moderators by Netmail or E-mail and ask them to deal with the
problem. In other words, leave the moderating to the moderators.
5. No profanity. This is an international family echo. Participants are
expected to act in a mature and polite manner. You may, however, ask
the meaning of a vulgarism. You may also quote vulgarisms, for example
a joke, if not to excess.
6. The language of the ENGLISH_TUTOR echo is, predictably, English.
7. Please do not quote more than necessary.
8. Please use your real name.
9. No advertisements for products or services are allowed. You may
mention programs, books, magazines and other materials related to
the study of the English language which you have found helpful.
10. No formal qualifications are required to act as a tutor. Tutors are,
however, expected to be literate in English.
11. Emphasis is on the use of standard English, but regionalisms are
acceptable provided they are identified as such.
12. Both American and British spelling, punctuation, etc. are
acceptable in this echo.
13. In view of their highly emotional nature discussions of sex,
religion, and politics need to be handled carefully. Within reason and
good taste such discussions will be allowed from time to time.
14. Participation in this echo is a privilege, not a right. Anyone is
welcome here as long as they abide by the rules.
15. Enjoy!
