Learning with Emro
In the first lesson Emro taught me some expressions quite useful and common, they're “by the look of it” and “by the look of things”, also he explained to me the meaning of bride and broom, I couldn’t remember their meaning although I had heard them before, besides he taught me and expression really similar to one we have in Spanish which is “tighten our belt” in contrast to the significate of this expression there’s me, I’ve never known how to do that also I don't know how people manage to tighten their belts.
Other examples of words learned with Emro would be expelled, which is the act to send someone to their home and not accepting them anymore in the place they got expelled, I hope I explained it well.
Next we reviewed some phrasal verbs such as carry on, carry out, back out of and drop out , the first of them is the one I use more often on my daily basis, I’m having trouble to remember what the second one means but hopefully I’ll learn it, in contrast, there are other things I’m not sure whether I want or learn or not, such as the name of Emro’s boss or the Greek alphabet.
After this he taught me some vocabulary related to the sort of cards we usually carry in our wallets, gradually he was introducing more and more unknown words for me and at the same time I was noting them down to go over them someday and as you can imagine and being specific today was that day, nevertheless I must review everything we do in class as much as possible consequently that information will remain longer in my memory which by the way is too short or at least I consider it as a short one. Finally, I agreed to read some texts and do some exercises and don't doubt about making them, I will.

Learning with Emro
In the first lesson Emro taught me some quite useful and common expressions, including “by the look of it” and “by the look of things”. Also he explained to me the meaning of "bride and groom" (I couldn’t remember their meaning although I had heard them before). He also taught me an expression really similar to one we have in Spanish, which is “tighten our belt”. in contrast to the significate of this expression there’s me, (I’ve never known how to do this, and I don't know how people manage to tighten their belts!)
Another word I learned with Emro would be "expelled", which is the act to send someone to their home and not accepting them anymore: I hope I explained it well.
Next we reviewed some phrasal verbs such as "carry on", "carry out", "back out of" and "drop out". The first of them, "carry on", is the one I use more often on my daily basis. I’m having trouble to remember what the second one means, but hopefully I’ll learn it. In contrast, there are other things I’m not sure whether I want or learn or not, such as the name of Emro’s boss or the Greek alphabet.

You have a hilarious way of storytelling--keep it up! To be honest, this is a very well-written piece. I marked a few corrections, but they really only come down to one or two common mistakes. You have a tendency to write very long sentences, which can make reading somewhat difficult. Try breaking these down into shorter sentences, as I did in my corrections.
Another thing you might consider is putting personal thoughts into parentheses, which look like ( ). This helps keep them separate from the "main" part of your writing!
I really like your writing style, and hope you continue to practice. If you would like me to explain any of my suggestions, feel free to message me!
