OMG! You are great! You sound like the best teacher i ever had! HAHAHAHA!
Thank you so much... And, I must confess, I was trying to sound so... aham... smart and poetic... And it didn't go that well, han?
HAHAHAAH! xD


Hahah, noo it definitely makes you sound smart! Just, some of its a bit unnecessary cause in general conversation you wouldn't really use the phrases thats all. Pretty impressive you can use those phrases at all though!

Ok... Guys, I'm tryng to use all of your advice to make a hell of a email! xP
But just a question...
This setence: "I started my education in Portugal, and I will to finish in Cape Verde.."
Doesn't require a «it» between finish and in

Really good :smile: Amazing in fact considering you say your english isn't great! Changed a few grammatical things, and all the italics are just little notes I thought might be useful. You could send it the way you wrote it and they'd understand, but I can tell you want it to soud the best it can :smile: Good luck!


Hey! Just one more question... Since I've got to apply a year before I finnish high school... What grades do I put on my curriculum?

Title is misleading, there is nothing formal about an e-mail.

You will fill out UCAS and say your final grades are 'pending' - its an option to put in :smile: And when your current teachers write your reference, they will put your predicted grades.

You want to say - "I started my education in Portugal, and I will finish it in Cape Verde."
