Hello, nice to you meet you! My name is Edgar, and I am currently studying in University of Toronto for Computer Science. I am from Hong Kong, but studied at a British International school, so I am fluent in both English and Cantonese. I am also conversational in Chinese-Mandarin. Currently, I am learning Japanese, so if you would like to be a language exchange partner with me, please contact me! I have experience teaching English in Thailand and also as a student teacher with TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate. はじめまして、エドガーと申します。私は深刻な言語交換のパートナーを探しています。そのはあなたなければ、連絡してください。バドミントンをしたり、ギターを弾いたり、ゲームをしたりするのが好きです。外国人に英語を教えることがあります。よろしくお願いします。

    Try watching some TV shows in English. The more you expose yourself to the language, the easier it will be for you to follow what is being said at your work.

    Argument

    I think that we must have many different opinions in argument then it makes a new idea, but almost people hesitate and don't say true opinion in case of almost Asian countries because people think that it makes upset feeling.

    I think that we must have many different opinions in arguments to produce new ideas, but almost all people from Asian countries hesitate and don't say their true opinion in case they will upset the listener.

    Do you say true opinion to your lover even if you can predict that will make angry? hahaha

    Do you speak your mind to your lover even if you can predict that will make them angry? hahaha


    「speak your mind」の意味は自分の思っていることを話します。

    よくできました～

    囲碁サイクル 一年生の時、友達は私を囲碁サイクルに連れて行きました。 その前に、囲碁を知りませんでした。日本語も話せませんでした。でも、囲碁に紹介してから、たくさん興味がありました。それから、毎週金曜に行きます。 囲碁サイクルに面白い人があります。ちょっと変だけど、優しいです。日本で囲碁はおじさんのゲームを知っていますが、カナダで囲碁をする若い者たくさんあります。いつか、日本で囲碁をしたいです。

    Warm Sunlight

    My cousin, who are 12 years old, visited to my house, so we went hiking before.

    My 12 year old cousin came to visit me and we went hiking together. (このほうがナチュラルです。）

    It was sunny without any clouds in the sky on that day and the best weather for hiking.

    It was sunny and there were no clouds, the best weather for hiking.

    A mountain we chose to climb up wasn't really high so that we all got to enjoy hiking as it is until the top of the mountain.

    The mountain we chose to climb wasn't really that high, so we all enjoyed hiking to the peak. (peak = top of the mountain)

    I remember that it took 2 hours or so to the top.

    I remember that it took 2 hours or so to get to the top.

    After we reached at the top, my cousin was full of energy. It's nice being young, haha. 

    Even after we reached the top, my cousin was still full of energy. It's nice being young, haha.

    We passed a bosky trail on the way, and it was so breezy and cool. Looking up, I saw the sunlight streaming through leaves swaying in the wind. I do love the beautiful scene. (よくできました！)

    The sunlight I saw form the top of the mountain was completely different with the one I saw everyday.

    The sunlight I saw from the top of the mountain was completely different from the one I saw everyday.

    It usually unnecessary raises temperature, which makes me suffer from the heat, but the sunlight I saw there was like embracing people there with a warm hug.

    Usually it is very hot and uncomfortable, but the sunlight I saw there was almost as if it were embracing people with warm hugs.

    Just getting a little closer to the sky, you can see everything in a different way. I had tons of fun, and it was happy time.

    Thank you for reading. See you soon.

     

    Well done!

    It was an ambitious piece, and it was well written.

    毎日の事 僕はトロント大学の三年生ですが、夏のコースを取っていません。今はサイトを作る会社に勤めています。毎日、地下鉄で４０分かかて、仕事に行きます。三年生の日本語のコースを取りたいので、地下鉄を乗る時、日本語の教科書を見ています。 仕事は毎日９時から５時までです。それから、晩御飯を作り、食べ、シャワーを浴びると、もう８時ごろです。もっと時間があるといいんですが。
