i met manytimes with people, offering me a help on some matters. But at the end, i found that they actually expecting for having a business with me.
and I met with another guy who says "hmm...we are a mutual friends, you can take something from me, i can be save with you"...i was very surprised cos i didnt think anything in return for just making a friend with him.
well, is it culturally normal in US or other west side countries to do HELP in terms of business? Generally, will you do a favor or helping on other people's matter without expecting anything in return? or you prefer to help in terms of business?

Helping to me is doing something out of the kindness of my heart and not expecting anything in return for it. When you expect favors or other things in return then you're not really helping them. That's more of business transaction if you ask me.

No, that is NOT normal... for friends to "help" one another it means just that, assisting with something with no thought of return. Just being a good friend in time of need.

It means that it is her opinion that you do what is expected of you every time and not just when you feel up to it. In your case it appears that she was complimenting you. However It is possible for her statement to be uncomplimentary. For instance if you consistently made bad grades on your tests then it would be correct to say that you could be counted on to make a bad grade on your tests which of course is uncomplimentary. No, the teacher is not telling you this just so you will learn the meaning of it. I think he or she is telling you this because they mean it and wish to compliment you.

i've had many people help me and didn't want anything in return. but i always reminded myself that i should check with them to see if they need help with anything, just to be kind.

helping, for me, in this case, would be teaching your grammar...
