Hi Doris,

I thoroughly enjoyed your session and was taken in by the magic of being called milady. (...giggles)

What a great way to reinforce language.

When you asked me whether I had managed to click on the board and buy an Astorian membership for 1 Linden Dollar, and I answered in the typical Second Life manner with, "yep, gotit" and you corrected my "SL english" and repeated me but said: Yes, I bought it, thank you milady. - that was very tactful and very nicely done.

Looking forward to more, for sure. Please invite me when you see me in-world.

Ah, one last thing. Would you be able to send me your bio? We will add this to the proceedings.

Hi Doris,

Thank you so much for doing this. I very much enjoyed it and I LOVE my dress.

What a great thing to do in Second Life and I really like how you correct my English from "yay, I got it, lol' to "yes, I bought it milady, ... smiles"

What a great way to teach English, I am sure you enjoy this lots.

Do you have students? May I volunteer to be your student?
