GROW OLD
Dear Teachers,
1. Spending too many hours in the classroom setting may even put you off the language.
- What does "put you off" mean here?
2. I have only come across two Teachers who were really excellent.
- What does "come across" mean here?
3. I've heard many good things about Germany, and hope to visit in sometimes.
- I think "in" is redundant here, right?
4. - May you two live happily together forever.
- May you two be happy together forever.
- Are these natural?
5. May you two grow old together.
- What does "grow old" mean here?
Thanks very much to Teachers,
Stevenukd.

Vorpar2. I have only come across two Teachers who were really excellent.I know this isn't your original sentence, but the only is misplaced, and the t should be lower case in teachers.
I have come across only two teachers who were really excellent.
