Dear teacher, you convinced me the slight different meaning between persuade and convince. To be honest, i learned it, from your video. Have a nice day.. May your shadow never grow less.

How are you feeling, Mr. Wes.
I always appreciate your teaching.
Would you mind if I ask you some advice about following sentence (I'm considering/depicting compliment to you. Could you modify/sophisticate it for you.)
How much your devotion would enhance our motivation to go a long way.
How much your devotion would boost our motivation to go a long way.
I hope this(non-native person's deed) would not be rude/impolite to you.

Thank you again for a REALLY useful lesson! 'my request was DENIDED' vs ' my offer was REFUSED' These words were always confusing to me, but they are clear now !
