Hi, I'm Amanda. I first started traveling to Japan in June 2014. I have been twice since then and intend on going again this year. I love Japan!! I love the beautiful people, the beautiful architecture, the delicious food 'おいしい’!! I love the way Japanese people queu patiently and are polite and humble. I fell in love with Japan and want to learn the language so I can continue to travel to Japan and make friends with so many lovely Japanese people. I am learning through a few online language schools but am constantly looking for ways to further enhance my learning and practice which is how I stumbled upon italki. I am looking forward to becoming more confident and proficient in my Japanese language learning.

    The Japanese Rainy Season has started.

    Where I live, the Rainy season continues until mid July.  It's called 'Tsuyu'.

    I hate the Rainy season because it is very humid.  (or you could say: I don't like the Rainy season at all because it is so humid).

    In Japan there are many festivals so I'm looking forward to summer!  (or you could say: In Japan there are many festivals so I hope the rain ends soon).


    Great Attempt!!!  がんばってください。

    Diary of my life in Canada　April 26

    It has been more than 1 month since I arrived here.
    I'm upset with myself because I can't speak fluently .

    In my ESL class, the teacher gives us a lot of homework everyday.
    I think it's important for us to do homework.
    But I want to learn about speaking.
    So I made up my mind!!!
    I'm making some sentences by myself instead of doing my homework!

    I can make an easy sentence, but I can't talk with my friend easy in daily conversation.
    Why??????

    I think it may be because I don't understand word order. (or you could write 'sentence structure' instead of 'word order' - either is ok)
    So that's why when I talk with my friend, I can't speak English fluently.
    I also need a lot of time to speak English.  My friend is really kind and he gives me opportunities to speak English.

    Please let me know how I should study to improve my speaking skills.


    Such a great effort!!  I have made some small corrections.  Don't give up!!  Just keep talking and writing.. talking and writing.  : )

    please help me, again

    Teachers feel that they have fallen in public esteem in recent years.
    "fallen in public esteem" what's this supposed to mean?
    Thanks, guys.


    Fallen in public esteem.

    Public esteem in this sentence basically means - reputation.  In this sentence, the writer is basically saying that it is the teacher's view/opinion that the general public (that primarily being parents of students) believe teachers are not as good as they once were.  That teachers are not educating as well as they have previously.  That their professional reputation is declining.


    I hope this has helped a little!  Kind regards,

    Amanda : )

    Do you like rain or sunshine?

    It is raining again where I live.  It is a rainy city in the south.  Actually, I don't mind a little rain if it's not heavy or stormy but I prefer a sunny day.  Like yesterday, it was a warm sunny day and I felt so good!
    So how about you?   Rain or sunshine, which one do you prefer?
