Try signing up to Lexody. You meet up with people in your city for a coffee or a drink for an hour and speak their language for half an hour then yours for the other half hour.

Obv for now it’s done via Zoom.

Find an Italian speaker who wants to learn English. It’s the closest thing to immersion without traveling.

You could combine this with lessons.

Wow I’ve never heard of this, looks really cool! Thanks for this suggestion

I recently signed up for Rosetta Stone (they have a deal where you can take 25 languages with unlimited lifetime access for $200) and started learning Italian that way! I love it - it’s simple, step by step and can do it on your phone or computer

I tutor ESL after school and recently switched over to Zoom. Students are stating that they are unable to annotate. I’ve read that this is common for Chromebook users. Does anyone know of a way to bypass this and/or any video/picture tutorials? Otherwise, it looks like we’ll just have to add an additional open tab with a google share doc. Many thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide.

Researching the job mkt & pay for nursing: It is so easy to set up a first interview esp. as a nurse. Set up a zoom meeting, in the zoom meeting ask abt job details and ask for the salary range. They will give it to you, and in my case it was the same range for both of the companies. (Hospice oncall nurse here👋). Then you fit in somewhere on that continuum based on education & experience—that where the negotiation comes in—they will make a case to place you as low as possible on the scale.
