We covered a lot in a short time today. Michael has already learned some grammar concepts and vocabulary on his own and has a very good pronunciation. I look forward to helping him continue to make progress.

🌟 It was a real pleasure to meet Michael for our first lesson! He came to class with such curiosity, positivity, and thoughtful preparation. He’s a great listener and communicator, and already brings strong language awareness to his Turkish learning. I’m really looking forward to working together and building a study plan tailored to his goals. Hoş geldin, Michael!

ミラーさん、ありがとうございました。 We studied how to say numbers, vocabulary and grammar in Lesson 1. Katakana is difficult at first, but don't worry, you will get used to it.

    Today I learned new English words that are great for me .
    I decided that if I learned a new word each and every day that can be helpful for me to be confident in speaking English, that would be good .
    Here is a link, and you can tell me about your experiences.
    Could you tell me about them? I don't understand some words. How do you pronounce them?

    Very good! Since you used "if" in the second clause, you will need to add another (independent) clause like "that would be helpful."
    You can look up words on forvo .com too. And I agree, using the emotion vocabulary in sentences will help you to learn them.

    Please correct my English

    I know how hard it is to know and learn a new language as a non-native speaker.
    Several times I failed to learn, several times I was exhausted and depressed .
    But I decided to fulfill my aim, that is, to learn a foreign language . I joined a language school for learning, I spent my time to learn and practice. Lot of people insulted me when I couildn't speak a foreign language. When I felt like a failure, I didn't feel comfortable or confident.
    I am learning new languages because I want to know how others are suffer with lots of problems. Don't they fail?
    I learned languages because I love people all over the world , if they can share their customs, culture, religion, food habits .
    If I can help them with my language , if I can share something with them, I would be glad.
    I am just waiting to gather more knowledge , more confidence.
    I am finding new techniques to learn foreign languages. I am finding the best and easiest processes, and the
    best books to help me as well .
    Thanks
    How about you?
    You can share your experiences. I am eager to learn from you.

    Great work! Note "can" with the main verb, without "to". I can study, you can't sleep, etc. I'll help you with English.

    Tuesday, June 16, 2020 - Billie Eilish

    Recently I fell in love with Billie Eilish’s voice and her music. Before I ever heard her songs, I only knew that Billie Eilish was a young singer who wore oversized weird clothes. Once by chance I heard her singing “Ocean Eyes” on online radio, and I found her voice charming and beautiful. I searched for more information about her and learned that she is very talented and she’d already won many musical awards by the age of 19. She has a close relationship with her brother with whom she collaborates on music and live shows. Among Billie’s songs “Six Feet Under”, “Bad guy” and “Ocean Eyes” are my favorites, especially <s>the</s> “Six Feet Under”. It’s like an earworm to me lately, I can’t help but sing it when I ride my scooter.

    Great entry, Maggie! Note in the first sentence, it's like reported speech; "I knew she was a great singer" (even though she is a great singer in general). I would use "a close relationship with her brother" vs. "an intimate relationship". I think that when you sing to her songs, you'll be able to improve your pronunciation and intonation!

    Facts about me

    1. Do you have any bad habits?
    - Yes, of course. I have many bad habits such as staying up late, getting up late, etc.
    2. Do you have any special hobbies?
    - Yes, I love cooking.
    3. Do you have any weird dreams?
    - Yes, I had a dream that I was a superhero. <em>(Or: I dreamed / dreamt that I was a superhero.)</em>
    4. What scares you the most?
    - I am most afraid of mice.
    5. Use only one word to describe yourself.
    - Cute.
    6. What is your biggest dream?
    - I wish I could go to a Nu'est concert.
    7. Whom do you have any strong feeling for?
    - I have strong feelings for my love.
    8. Do you have any ideas about an ideal lover? <em>(Or: ...about who an ideal lover would be)</em>
    - No, I don't. I believe in the feeling between two people.
    9. What inspires you most?
    - My idol.
    10. Did you do any silly things when you were a child?
    - I hurt myself with a knife.

    Great work! I would always write "you" vs. "u", especially if you're not texting.
    It's more natural to say "a Nu'est concert" than "a concert by Nu'est". These are great questions, and it's fun to ask your own questions and answer them. (Who is your idol?)

    Saturday, June 14, 2020 - A Hiking Tour in Wulai

    Yesterday we joined a guided hiking tour in Wulai, which is a small town in New Taipei City, famous for its hot springs and aboriginal culture. I have been to Wulai several times, but I never really liked it because of the messy street view and ugly shop signs. However, this time we went farther into the mountainous area, and I found the scenery beautiful. The hiking trail was built alongside the stream, so we could hear the sound of the flowing water during the whole trip. Our nature-loving, enthusiastic tour guides gave us detailed explanations of the plants and insects we saw on the way. We also saw several waterfalls coming down from the cliffside. I really enjoyed being surrounded by the nature, and wish I could visit it again soon.

    Great work! You used a lot of detail, with many reasons why you enjoyed the visit. I updated a couple of verbs to the past tense so they agreed with the tense of the rest of the paragraph. (Note as well "I have been to Wulai several times" vs. "for several times".) I hope you can plan another trip later this year!

    An article practicing A nouns

    An actor named Adam Smith from America and an Asian actress, Amy Lu, took part in an action to help a retired astronaut. The old man whose age is 77(who is aged 77) had suffered from the pain of cancer since April of last year, which drew little attention from others.
    In order to collect money, they appeared in an advertisement in Australia in August. The storyline is like this: ' When the bushfire in Australia is very serious and the dust fills the air, millions of animals are burned or injured. There is no peaceful area. Adam who acts as an artist firstly helped to send the injured animals to the hospitals or airports. Then he painted hundreds of pictures of dead or dying animals. When Amy asks him why he did that in his art show, he says' Compared with death, we may know the meaning and beauty of life. Helping the living creatures is not our duty.But if you do that, maybe an army of ants, a disabled kangaroo or a retired astronaut can survive or be better. In return, you will gain the ability to love and share.' Amy says:' That's very good advice. If you don't know how to share and love, you will grow old, but will never grow up.'
    When they finished the ad, they did help the old man as well as many injured animals. What's more, they all became famous, just as the Chinese saying goes:'Everyone will love you if you love them.'

    Wow, this is a nice idea, focusing on words beginning with one letter. Outstanding job! I made very few updates, and I hope they're helpful. I usually don't review longer entries, but yours was so interesting, I couldn't resist :) I'm going to look up this story.
    I would be very happy to help you to practice English.
