First notebook entry: Introducing myself Hello, My name is Xin Zhao, and you can call me Shane. I hope to improve my english language proficiency here as I am going to America to begin my PhD study based on animal behavior research. A better language warm-up will help me adapt to the life there more quickly. ITALKI provides us a platform to know people from all around the world. Thus, I hope I can improve english in a way of making more friends here and talking with them about each life and culture. As I mentioned in my brief introduction, I also would like to help you practice chinese and learn more about my country.

Hi, Katherine. I really appreciate your revision. You are right, I received my Bachelor's in biotechnology. Because I was very interested in animal behavior, I began to pursue a Master's degree on ethology after my undergraduate study. Last year, I received the degree. The growing interests on the neural substrates of behavior motivated me to further my research. Then, I applicated graduate program and fortunately I got an admission from the university of wisconsin-madison, not far from Milwaukee;>. If everything goes well, this august, I will be there. My research area is biology of brain and behavior, and what coincident is my supervisor there also named Catherine (may be there are more differences except one letter, anyway, it's really great to meet you!)

Hello! Your English is excellent, how have you studied before joining italki? I assume that the fact that you want to prep your English for your PhD here means that you've gotten the equivalent of your Bachelor's and Master's in China. What are they in? Biology? Where are you coming in the U.S. for your PhD? Anyway, you can always message me, I'd be happy to hear from you. Chinese history, culture, and modern politics are very interesting to me, but I gave up on learning to speak Mandarin because I can't hear tonals well.
