We need another writing challenge. Nikola’s was great

Nikola’s language challenge was great. We need another one.
We’re all language enthusiasts here and can help each other out.
Alharacas is one of the best German teachers I’ve ever seen.
She’s fantastic!
And Sofia is great with the Italian and Nikola with English.
Let’s do another one.

Thank you! Happy to hear that. I might come up with something
again soon. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears :)

Not only was the challenge great but her writing is spectacular.
It's native level. We might be looking at the next Joseph
Conrad. I'm only exaggerating a little.

Jerry. I suggested we invite your buddy Trump to join in. With
a mind like his, we’ll go far, because he is “Really really
Really Smart and He knows How to Write so so so so good. I mean
really Really really Smart (see the more “ really’s” you put in
a sentence proves how convincing you are. And you can randomly
capitalize any word your want. Verbs, nouns, adjectives. With
him it doesn’t matter. And you make your sentence stronger and
more convincing, according to that retarded orange hair combover
you adore with the nuclear codes, by repeating yourself. Use
the same words 15 times in a sentence for emphasis. And don’t
forget to say “sad” at the end of your rants on twitter at 3 am.
I have to hear this daily on Yahoo News, while the rest of the
civilized world is spared this. They don’t know how lucky they
are.
But, Nikola wants me to change the subject because she suspects
I don’t like Trump.
But yes, a new language challenge would be great. ::)

I knew it since I read her comments on italki last October. She
is my teacher on italki. I had twenty lessons with her and will
have more. I don't have any special purpose like passing the
English test. I just want to talk to a wise person.

That’s very nice of you to say, Chizuko. Yes, Nikola is a great
English teacher and very nice person. (She’s even nice to me!)
Nikola is a very talented with languages and you are fortunate
to have her. Good teachers like she are hard to find (another
screwy English sentence, “good teachers like her are hard to
find, or good teachers like she are hard to find......she can
tell you which is right! Gosh, they both sound right to me).

SHL, thank you.
I wrote I didn't have the purpose of the English test, but
reading this thread, I've decided t take the test, OOPT(Oxford
Online Placement Test). I guess my level is B2 now, but I've
felt my improving since I had lessons with Nikola. I might be
able to get C1 in the near future, soon.
