Hello po, Salamat sa update mo. Natutuwa akong marinig na May tamang glasses ka ngayon. Buti naman okay din ang biyahe niyo at ang garden niyo rin. Okay naman din po ako. Nagwowork lang ako at naggygym pa din ako paminsan-minsan. Hanggang sa muli -Mohamed
Kumusta Guro po Albine! My asawa and I just got back from a month long trip to South Africa. We will visit ang Philippines next taon po. And I finally retired from my trabaho po!!! Paalam guro po!!! -Rutgers
Kumusta po, marami pong Salamat sa Malaking lesson nito. Magrereview po ako mamaya. Ingat ka po palagi.. Sana magiging mas better and kalasugan mo. At makakahanap ka ng tamang glasses. Magandang Umaga po sayo. -Regards, Mohamed
I was wondering if it would be possible to eliminate the need for side scrolling on the Vocabulary Tables. My suggestion would be to include the pronunciation or english info directly under the tagalog word and eliminate a column. The examle sentences column could then be made wider. or the entire table could be made wider, but still centered on the page. There is plenty of unused space on either side. Otherwise, I think your lessons are great and provide lots of interesting and useful information. Regards, -Louis
Dear Albine! Thank you for your email. It is my fault, but I don't know too much about the Philippines' history. I just learned a few things when I studied Tagalog, in school mostly focusing on European history and Hungarian history. Asia is too far from us, so probably that's why we don't give too much effort to know more about Asia. I remember I read a lot about World War 2, about the Asian campaign of the. Japanese empire. I saw many recordings about the brutal attack in the Philippines. I saw some documentaries about the lives during Spanish colonization too. If you teach me more about the Philippines history, I'd be happy. I'd read it. Maraming Salamat po!I ngat ka! -Thomas
Hello Albine I hope and Bruce is well tbh I don't understand lot of this patawad lol 😆 Ingat -Simon
Maraming Salamat po! Thank you for writing your self-introduction. I really appreciate it. Me, I don't really like to speak about myself. But between friends, I think it is okay. {some texts left private} It helps me to improve my language skills, to know people from around the world. and I can help them with teaching, organizing programs to have a lot of experiences, and also I want to show them that our country is one the best in the world.... -Thomas
Ok teacher.. Drive safely.. Ingat Palagi 🙏🏽🙏🏽 .. I have been driven there, and roads are too secure, but just hit Bruce when he get more han 65 miles per hour. 🫢🫢. Thanks for continúe in communication.. ❤️ -Tomas
Hope you Enjoy your wedding . I am pleased to see your book coming long Ingat 😄 -Simon
Dear Teacher! Long long time never hearing from you. It is nice to hear from you. OMG! I'm sorry that I haven't replied to your emails. I'm busy and just selected my emails (answer later or right now - emails) I have a lot of questions for you, and I would like to talk with you. I think a little bit I forgot Tagalog, but it doesn't mean that I don't know it. For me the biggest problem was, I was not able to use it to practice the language. I was like a baby, language was in my head, but I could not speak... I'm really sorry that somehow after Covid I lost connection with you....Suddenly, ' the life' come back, and my free time disappeared. How are you? How is it doing these days?I think your idea to teach Tagalog was really good. I really appreciate your motivation to take the Philippines flag to teach the culture.I read your emails and I will answer your ideas. Pls give me time for it!Ohh, since last year Hungary opened borders for Filipino workers, OFW to work here. So many-many Filipinos came to Hungary to work in factories... It is new for us, because we don't really know them, or that culture. Thank you for your email! Thank you for not forgetting me! -Thomas
Hello. Good to hear from you and great you are back. How much are your lessons? -Harry
Hi Ma'am Albine! Great to hear from you! I'm actually very interested in your free series that you've mentioned. How can I gain access so I can improve my Tagalog? Thank you in advance! So glad to see you're still active and passionate about teaching your language to those that want to learn! Life has been a bit rough on my end but I'm still here fighting the good fight! Hope you and your family are doing well too! Talk to you soon! -Get Lost Vlogs
