This is quite a problem when trying to learn another language as an adult as grammer is quite important, and it's somehow taken for granted that wh know our grammer.<BR/>I mix a lot with adult learners through my work and my girfriend has learnt Welsh in the last few years. I'm really keen work as a Welsh tutor, as I'm sure I'd get a lot of fulfilment from it, and I know that coleg gwent for instance have to turn people away from Welsh clases as the can't meet demand. But I'm really paranoid about my lack of grammer.
