It's "The Tutor Blog" which is run by a teacher - Minats. In my zone I wish I could help my students (Ss) with writing and, possibly, with some other things. Welcome to my zone!

Hey there. I'm lucky to enjoy Indian autumn in St Pets. It was nice, warm and sunny here for the whole day of Sept. 20. Thanks God it was so! Suren, my classmate joined me after lunch. Great!
My trip to Saratov came to an end on December 8th. It was fine and I had really many regrets that they had a lot of snow there, in Saratov, whereas in Moscow it's grey and sleazy. ESOL people there are really efficient and everything was well organized. My FCE examining on December 8th in Moscow was nothing special, without any unexpected things. Thanks God for that! The best news is that today I've met my new FCE group in school 1359, Zhulebino. They are all pretty young, from 8th form, and seemed to be very cute. We decided to split the group into two ones in March, after our CAE boys and girls have done the examination. I'll tell you more about the new group as soon as I know about them more. That's all for now.
Dear all. I've been greatly impressed by my trip to Diveevo, though it was not easy to do so many things within two days we had there, and almost no sleep at all. However, it's said that "What you do in the name of God will be rewarded". Perhaps, this saying is very, very true as Marina's - my daughter, and my energy throughout this trip was unending. Now I want to publish some photos that show the mistery and the mightiness of the Russian Holy Land - Diveevo. Mind, that the big tree in one of the pictures was planted by Saint Aleksey, the son of the Russian Tsar Nicolos II. The Tsar's family frequently visited Diveevo before Revolution in October 1917 for advice and worshipping. The tree has a small inscription on the stem about the Prince. Strange as it may seem, but the tree is really very different from other trees there as if it has been accumulating energy for almost 100 years, when it was planted and now it is very strong and healthy. The famous Holy ...
Oh, I must say time is really flying here. We're leaving for Hanoi tomorrow and tonight I'm sending the last post from this splendid but a bit weird place - Long Hai (a tiny village near our hotel). The thing is that here I really first realized what the tropical climate is like: sudden downpours, sunny spells, thick fogs, starless nights and the last but not least - sand bugs, Yes, they are microscopic, living on sand and flying only to eat human body ( I've been eaten all over while lying on the beach with a book). Now my body is spotted and no ointment helps to stop itching. I had no such problems during my previous visits so I guess the very southern part of Vietnam is not really good for me. Strange as it may seem, but Stanislav doesn't have any problems and seems to be really unwilling to get back to work in Hanoi, Well, now a few words about fun - today we've been to a place called Binh Chau "Hot Springs & Mud Baths". It's different from N...
