別以為 straight shooter 指的是一個槍法很準的人哦
它其實是指一個說話很坦誠直接的人
straight 這個字一般除了「直的」這個意思以外
也有「直接的」的意思，甚至還有「異性戀的」之意 (相對於 gay )
要別人對你說實話，可以說：Give it to me straight.
要問別人是同性戀或異性戀者就是：Are you gay or straight?
(不過不要隨便亂問，否則很失禮)

I’m an American English teacher in Taiwan who works almost exclusively with adults.
I don’t teach tests, textbooks, or children.
My classes focus on speaking, pronunciation, and natural conversation, with real correction — not just chatting.
Classes are 100% in English (this actually helps speaking more than people expect).
I’m opening a few new conversation slots right now.
If you’re an adult who wants to actually speak better, feel free to comment or message me.
