Hello ,
I would like it if you could help me for the usage of for and about.
Are these sentences correct?
1) Could you tell me about the qualifications of the teachers of the Big Ben school of English ?
2) I recently saw your advertisement in my school for the language courses.
3) I recently saw your advertisement in my school about the language courses.
And if you can, please say why they are correct or wrong; thank you very very much in advance for your help.
Have a nice day.

Hello,
In the first sentence, about is used well.
In the second sentence, the advertisement aims for encouraging people to follow language courses.
In the third sentence, language courses is the topic of the advertisement. The advertisement can show the useful or the useless sides of language courses.
I hope it helps.
