Help needed from my \"English as a Second Language\" friends.

[ipaintminis]

Hey guys! long time no talk. I know its all my own fault with school, but I promise I\'m still painting!

speaking about school. I need help. I\'m in a \"Teaching English as a Second Language for Kindergarten through 12th grade\" class this summer, and we have an assignment due next Sunday

I need one person from another culture that would be willing to have an email conversation about your culture. The culture in question native/first language can\'t be English and the native/first culture can\'t be American.

the questions will be about conceptions about time, personal space, dress codes, rituals and ceremonies, work and leisure systems, medicine and health, religious beliefs and practices, roles and status, gender, social class, age appropriate activities, occupations, child-rearing practices, food preferences and the humanities and arts.

It\'d be an interview type situation (only 20 Q&A) and I would need to turn it in by next Sunday.

Please email me if you can help. I would really appreciate it.

BUMP
Don\'t know if \"Geordie\" qualifies as it\'s not quite English.

I\'ll pass this on to a Friend in the Language Department, She\'s an Advisory Teacher for Modern Languages, French and very helpful.

I\'m up for it, I amways find questions of cultural differences and specificities interesting.
