in Hollywood you fake it if you can't make it

So today I met my French student for the first time.
Some Dad called me after I posted that 'Great Language Teacher German/French/Russian/English' Ad, which was actually meant to target foreigners who want to learn English.
But he wanted a French teacher for his son.
"oh Money is not an issue...'
his son, too, when I told him that for the first hour it would be okay to pay half of the usual price told me
"oh, money is not a proble, I have it...'
he is from Beverly Hills.
Went to the Beverly Hills Highschool.
Well, so what do you do when you have a really big fish in your net but you don't know how to kill it?
My French sucks. C'est la galere, vraiment.
I am not a walking dictionary.
Unfortunately his French is pretty good... *laughs*
well, I explained him that 'we' usually teach in a team and that my partner (my friend Barbara who talked me into doing all of this) is a native speaker and we want to approach him from as many sides as possible, therefore we have her for excercising fluent conversational skills and I would teach him how to effectively learn a language, because as I learned myself French as foreigner I know what it takes.... blablabla *gasps*

In Hollywood, you know, all it takes is a huge smile and a convincing attitude, a 'I am the right one and will make sure that you get the most appropriate, personalized and best teaching' lie and that's it.

In Hollywood you fake it, if you can't make it.

(sidenote: making it in Hollywood means making it big time as a star)

well well. So I will teach French but I very much hope I get some people who actually want to learn English.
I might have to change my ad.
It was fun though. Our neighborhood cafe hangout place changed ownership and the dude is from Morocco and speaks French too. He will hep me ;-) and actually, he will put some of my paintings on his wall....
Now is that cool or something. I just need to paint them yet, of course, but you know....*lol*
oh PEOPLE OUT THERE: i HAVE become Hollyweirdian. after a while you just get the drift. and then you do it. it's all about the attitude dear fellas....


what a life

*ps look out for my posts about my 'obese children camps' that I will get tons of money for!
