Well I'm 47 and a US citizen and I'm working on leaning Spanish. I've found it to be a show process but things have improved since Lord Eden was here and left a copy of Language software for me. Prior to that my teacher was a 73 yr old French Canadian lady. I have no idea why it's taken me so long. Could me my fairly serious dyslexia, or maybe I'm just a slow learner. Whatever it's taken me a long time. But I would never expect to go to another country and have them learn English for me.
As for tipping I'm pretty much done beating that dead horse but I will add here it's even worse. On cruise day the restaurants by the pier charge waiters rental on tables. Many places in Merida to not pay their wait staff anything. No tip=no income. As for "find a better job"... here? Good luck with that.
