Greetings from Brazil!

Hello edufireneses…I´m a new tutor here and I´m looking forward to hearing from the regulars here. I´ve only joined this site so I´m still browsing around… Tips on how to go about getting students are welcome, lol.

Hi Janaina and welcome to eduFire! :)

When we have an info session we’ll cover a few things one of them being marketing. In the meantime you may find this thread useful!

Great to have you join us! :)

Nice to meet you Janaina! Brazil.. how wonderful! :)

Welcome Janaina! I second doing an info session with Marco and reading the thread for marketing yourself. You’ve already taken the first step by posting to the forum =) Great job!

Welcome here Janaina! We all like you to be a member of our great family.

Thank you all, you have all been very warm and friendly and I can see friendship springing in this beautiful garden .

Speaking of gardens, which I love, the best and healthiest garden is one in which a variety of flowers or vegetables grow. So it goes with friendships. :) :)

Oh Candy! So, Am I a vegetable or a flower? :(

hahahahaha….Dr. Hamdy, you strike me as being as cool as a cucumber! lol…..

Candy…I´ve just updated my profile, and I have coincidentally said I´m a garden lover….What´s your favorite flower? I love them all, but pansies are definitely a favorite…

I know this is very difficult for me, Hamdy, to make a choice as to which flower is my favorite, but I do love the poppies. They don’t last very long, but when I see them in my yard, I know summer has arrived. They are difficult to grow from seeds.
Now the flower you love is the pansy, or, as my grandmother (Oma) used to call them, “Monkeyfaces”. If you look closely at one, they do appear to have little faces like a monkey. Since you adore animals, I now know why you like pansies!

Regarding whether you are a vegetable or a flower, I think of you as something with great humor. So….hmmm….what could you be? Can you think of a veggie you would be? I, myself, would be a ripe red pepper…a pimiento rojo caliente!
I like my food spicy, so I’ll be that.

hmmmm, candy is a spice girl! And she like poppies! What can we infer from that? hmmmm….lol..just messing with ya Candy girl…

¡Bienvenida, Janaina!

Yes…I love the flamboyant, exotic, and colorful, Janaina. I love your name by the way. How did you acquire such a lovely name? Are you named after someon in your family or does your name mean something special?

In my case somebody must have planted a steak. :)

lol..Hi Jon…you´re a triffid?

Candy, my name comes from african origin i believe. it is the name of their goddess of the sea, Janaina or Iemanjá. They´re both names used for the same goddess.

I have a different opinion about your name Janaina. we have a similar word in spoken Egyptian Arabic which is " genaina" and it means a garden. Maybe that’s the meaning of your name?

Anyway, your name is nice and you really seem to be a Genaina filled with flowers and roses. :)

Thank you very much Candy. You all are funny and nice here. I really like to commincate with people her and be like I am. Although we have not contacted personally, I mean most of people here, but it is still amazing to be with all of you.

I hope I can meet as many as I can from you in person one day.

Thanks again Candy, Janaina and everyone. :)

Wow Janaina. Day of The Triffids reference. Very nice.

Welcome to eduFire, Janaina!

Perhaps Janaina is the goddess of the sea garden! That sounds quite lovely! So we have created a new title for you, Janaina. Your name also rhymes with Lahaina, in Maui, Hawaii. That way I can spell it correctly.

Hi, Kristie! Did you have a pleasant weekend? Did you watch the Olympics? What were your favorite events if you did watch?

Thanks Kristie! I´m glad to be here…Hey Candy….yes, in portuguese we do say a sea of roses rather than a bed…I love both things, the sea and gardens, so I´m more than happy with that!
