Hooray, it's Wednesday! That means there are only two more days until the weekend :) What else is special about Wednesdays? A recent survey in the US reported that bosses are most receptive to requests on a Wednesday.

The seasons are quickly changing, the weather is getting nicer and some of us may be "on cloud nine" with the prospect of spring just around the corner!

Weather is not only a source of emotions but also makes the English language brighter with expressions like "it never rains but it pours", "fair-weather friend", "there's something in the wind" and many more!

If you "haven't the foggiest idea" when it comes to all these expressions, no need to "put it on ice" any longer because KNOW-HOW can help you make sense of it all :)

Today's know-how: learning a foreign language is not an easy task and doing page after page of grammar exercises certainly doesn't make it the funnest task! So how about trying some unconventional methods?

And as always, KNOW-HOW is here to make learning English a fun and painless process :)

Wish you could communicate with your company’s Japanese suppliers? Afraid to hike the Andes because the little Spanish you crammed in your head in high school has since evaporated? Want to impress the hot Portuguese guy/ girl in your dance class?...

And we're back! The Olympics are just around the corner but foreigners will have some difficulties understanding what is required of them...maybe the Olympic Committee of Russia should have asked KNOW-HOW for some translation know-how!

Daily know-how: last night an unparalleled, truly admirable 95 year journey from poverty, segregation and slums through prison, and forced labour to victory, fame and international recognition has come to an end. The Nobel Peace Prize, the Presidential Medal of Freedom or the Lenin Peace Prize are just a few of the myriad of awards honouring a lifetime of public service and unrelenting fight for human rights

Nelson Mandela has been and will continue to be a role model for all freedom and peace loving people all over the globe. KNOW-HOW would like to pay tribute to one of the greatest statesmen of all time with one of his famous quotes:

"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."

RIP Mr. Mandela
