My Dairy 2

I took a class  in Canada for the first time. I was just shocked because only 3 people, including me, were in our classroom. There were suppose to be more but almost  all the students didn’t come on time. There were 9 at the end of the class. I think they are wasting time and money. We would like to improve our English, that’s why we are in Canada, right?


Explanations:
Overall, good job! Keep up the good work! I'm from Texas so the English may be a little different but not too much.


It is hard to explain why these two are different but I tried:

I took the class for first time in Canada 

    ^This means that you have never taken a class before in any other country

I took a class in Canada for the first time

    ^Putting "in Canada" in the middle of the sentence suggests that you have taken classes before, just not in Canada.

I took an English class for the first time in Canada. I was completely shocked! Only 3 people, including myself, were in our classroom. There were supposed to be more. Most of the students didn’t come on time. There were 9 at the end of the class. I think they are a waste of time and money. We would like to improve our English, that’s why we are in Canada, right?


My comments:

Welcome to Canada!

I assumed you were taking an English class.

I think you meant most, instead of almost.

"aren't we?" can also be used instead of "right?", but both are fine.

People do say "just shocked" instead of "totally/completely shocked", however "just shocked" has a different meaning when taken literally. I have only seen it used in verbal, informal conversations.(it is a colloquialism).

You might think they are wasting their time and money, instead of them being a waste of time and money. I am unsure.

"aren't we?" can also be used instead of "right?", but both are fine.

Good job! I hope I helped a bit!

I took an English class for the first time in Canada. I was shocked! Only 3 people, including me, were in the classroom at the start of class. There were supposed to be more. It turns out, most of the students didn't come on time, as there were 9 by the end of it. I think they're wasting their time and money. We're here in Canada to improve our English, after all, right?


I apologize if I changed it too much. I wanted to make it sound as natural as possible.

I took the class* for the first time in Canada. I was just shocked! Because only 3 people including me are in our classroom. It supposes to be more, most students didn’t come on time. There were 9 at the end of the class. I think they waste# of time and money. We would like to improve our English, that’s why we are in Canada, right? ( At the end maybe you mean right now) Have fun dear NaNa. :)

Note:

* if you mean the special class then it will be correct// the class.
# If you mean (always / every day / usually, etc. it is not needed to change the form of the verb or use grand verbs (am/ is/are)

and also who are THEY? Do you mean they are 8, with you will be 9? so, do you waste your time too? Or you mean that those students who did not attend on time?
