  • Hey Kayla. Just want to say that you're doing an amazing job... Just one thing that I don't really like in some of your videos. The background music playing during the whole lesson... I believe my colleagues students would be agree with me that when we watch/listen to those videos one or two times it's okay, but when we have to watch them 5-10 times... that background music sounds way too annoying. Would you mind making subsequent clips without any background music, please? Thank you. Igor.

Do note that this expression isn't used in France. "Egg" Implies "hard-boiled egg". Thank you for your dedication to your students. 👍👍🌹

I can't deny, there are several considerate, ambitious and hard working members however there're some couch potatos and gossip girls. They talk behind me, critise my apperance, management way secretly, among their friends so we always have a bone to pick unfortunally, i don't even know how to run my club anymore, give me some wise advices please, i really wanna keep it alive and go forward. I'm burnt out but i will bring rules to obey in club and stand firm about them residual!!
