a question about "kunnen"

Can anyone help my learning Dutch? I am looking for someone helping me learn Dutch.  Learning it to prepare myself for future emigration to Nederlands.
I'm interested in exchanging messages in simple Dutch first.
If you are kind enough to find it interesting, give me some feedback.  Thank you!

Help me with English grammar Could you tell me the difference between "make his promise a reality" & "make his promise real" ?

I guess there's not much difference, but tell me your ideas, please.

I always get confused about when to use 'make noun adjective' and 'make noun noun'

Thank you.

the role of school Nowadays, the transmission of knowledge by teachers, which school used to monopolize, is available everywhere; smartphones, AI, even people from all over the world on convenient platforms like this italki. Students can get online videotaped lectures if they want.

So what are the roles school should play?

Please share your ideas, also your ideas about ideal school would be welcomed.

Thank you all, oh, people in the USA, congratulating on your 4th of July!

Your favorite Stand-up commedians?

Nowadays,  I've been thinking about watching stand-up commedy to learn English.

Can any of you recommend your favorite commedians? 

Proverbs in your country I'm curious about the local proverbs in your country or area. That reflects the important values or virtues of your place.

Any ideas?

One example:

A nail that stands out will be hammered down.

Meaning you will be hammered down if you don't agree with the organization and try to make a stand.

What's your impression of Japan?

I've been wondering what being Japanese is like. 

Sometimes it's hard for us to look at my own home ground objectively because we've totally got soaked in our culture and brainwashed.

So it would be so wonderful if you tell your impressions about it. 

Can pessimists be optimistic?

If you answer "yes" to this question, could you tell me how?

Please share your ideas (except medical treatment like brain surgery, drinking much, or taking drugs) 

Additional question

Very sadly, Japan is famous for the number of people who kill themselves.  I do think this is because we have many pessimists here in Japan and blame themselves.  How do you think you can decrease the number?

Ideas for language classroom settings To every single successful language learner - please share your experiences of the activities you have done in your classroom, which you think have contributed to your language development.

Hi I'm a serving language teacher working at a public high school in Japan, where our first language "Japanese" has monopolized the whole country. That means it is quite hard for learners (especially unwilling ones) to get enough input and chances to do output except in the classroom for their language development.

I would like all of you to share your ideas of constant activities(not big, irregular, like events) that you have experienced in your school days.

Your opinions surely help students in Japan enjoy their language learning. I appreciate all of them.
