27 November 2024

Welcome to my personal website!
My name is Roger Hartopp, and I am a writer, teacher, conversationalist, cartoonist and proof checker (and with my wife, translator of Polish texts). I am the author of a book called Typical Errors in English, and also manage a website of the same name which you can discover at www.typicalerrorsinenglish.com .
 
Here are the latest bits of news concerning me and this site...

 

27 November 2024: In ONE LESSON TOPICS, three more subjects added to our new series of topics designed to last a single 60-minute lesson for those who want each lesson to be different: AI is not very good, Chatbots, and Double negatives.

12 November 2024: In ONE LESSON TOPICS, three more subjects added to our new series of topics designed to last a single 60-minute lesson for those who want each lesson to be different: X 'factor', Less or fewer, and IPA. However, I have removed 'summer holidays' (edited edition) because, for me, it didn't work. The full-length version in CONVERSATIONS works so much better.

THE IMPORTANT BITS

CURRICULUM VITAE. Who I am. My curriculum vitae. My resume. Whatever you like to call it, this is what I am about if you want to seriously consider me for some wonderful tasks.

 

CONTACT. If you want to write to me, speak to me, e-mail me, and so on...

 

CARTOONY UNIVERSE. Here are a few samples of artwork from my trusty pens. Some are shortly to be published in the book, one has been used for a company website, and others are just simply for my amusement. Do you want something similar for your company?

 

TYPICAL ERRORS IN ENGLISH. Are you a second language learner of English? If so, and if you are from Poland or Central Europe, or even from other European language countries, then this is the grammar book for you. Written and illustrated by myself, and published by TERTIUM, Typical Errors in English may be the book for you. So If you need someone who's good with their grammar...

 

STORIES AND POEMS. Are you a literary agent desperately looking for the next J.K.? Or Stig Larrson? You may wish to look further, but not before you check out some samples...

 

ENGLISH CONVERSATION LESSONS. Are you learning English as a second language? Do you need to practise your conversational skills? Let me know if you are interested.

 

PUBLISHED WORKS. All the books that I have been involved in as a writer, editor or proofing.

 

PROOFING. If you are a budding writer who has had their work translated into English but are unsure of the quality, I might be able to help check your texts.

 

PUBLICITY. Pictures and a report from my visit as a guest at the 19th annual book fair in Krakow, Poland. There are some press cuttings where I have helped to make the news, along with other materials such as publicity posters for my book.

Author, cartoonist, language instructor, English text proofing, and a definite sense of humour
