    En kort introduktion

    Hej, jeg hedder Victoria. Jeg er kommer fra USA. Jeg er seksten år gammel. Jeg er ved at lære dansk alene. Vi ses!

    ---------

    Hej Victoria!

    (English Below)

    Jeg har ikke dansk som modersmål, men jeg kan godt give nogle hints. Det er mere naturligt på dansk at skrive "Jeg kommer fra USA" end "Jeg er fra USA".

    Jeg farvede "er ved at" med orange fordi det er ikke "forkert", men det betyder ikke det, som jeg tror du mener. Du mente nok "Jeg prøver at" eller noget i den stil.

    Hi Victoria!

    Danish isn't my native language, but I can give you some hints. It's more natural in Danish to write "Jeg kommer fra USA" (I come from the US) than "Jeg er fra USA" (I am from the US).

    I highlighted "er ved at" in orange because it's not "wrong", but it doesn't mean what I think you meant. In Danish "er ved at" translates to "just about to", such as "I'm just about to walk out of the apartment". What I think you meant was that you are trying to learn Danish alone. Therefore I would write "Jeg prøver at lære dansk alene". 

    Good job and keep it up!

    A cup of tea

    My colleagues ordered beverages to for their tea time from the tea shop which is famous for its tea. However, I didn’t order one because drinking tea always makes me feel uncomfortable. Every time I drank drink tea, my heartbeat speeded speeds up and got I get a headache,  and stomachache. Perhaps I’m much very sensitive to caffeine. But I sometimes take a sip of Ceylon black tea. Its It's smell and taste is full of exotic aroma, so I love it!

    Good job!

    I put beverages in orange because it is correct, but people often do not use this word (it sounds a bit too official). I would say "drinks". However it is not wrong, so I did not put a line through it :)

    Note: When you wrote "Every time", you are talking about something that happens also in the future (if you drink coffee next week, for example). Therefore the past tense is not what you wanted. Example:

    "Every time I go to the shop" <-- Happens "every time", ALSO in the future

    "Every time I went to the shop" <-- Happens "every time", ONLY in the past
