Hi Jim,

Thanks again for been there.

b) I started my English classes every Monday at twelve.

OK. I used to start is better. I assume this is from the viewpoint of the teacher.

No really, It is a student who wrote it.

d) I had to give up my new job because it wasn't compatible with my rehabilitation.

OK. But rehabilitation? Were you in a terrible accident?

~~Or have you just been released from prison?~~

The gay that wrote this sentence, as well as some others that I teach in a couple of groups, have had car accidents and as a result they are in a wheel chair. Great gays believe me.

e) I got a little benefit in the last business that I made. ?

Do you mean I made a little profit from the last business I owned?

I made a little profit from my last business deal?

I don't really know. They are my student's sentences.

What about this one?

My brother didn't earn too much

with his last business.

Then it's

My English class starts at twelve every Monday.

Thinking Spainhave had car accidents

OK. Then 'rehabilitation' makes sense. I'd use 'interfered with', though.

I had to give up my new job because it interfered with my rehabilitation.

Also, with my physical therapy.

Thinking SpainMy brother didn't earn too much with his last business.

Fine. Also, not very much . I assume that, as is usual, the parentheses mean that the enclosed text is optional.
