    Hey Alina, "utensils" and "cutlery" are the most common, but all are acceptable (except I've never heard of eating irons before, but perhaps that term is used somewhere I'm not familiar with.)

    'I took a two hour walk today' is correct - 'two hour' is the amount of time the walk took, so it is not possessive, but adjectival. Hope that helps!

    I bought a really beautiful bracelet at Marina bay sands on 14 Jan. It broke today after two-days of wearing it. I didn’t press or crush it. I’m surprised the bracelet is so fragile. Since there was no brand new one, I bought the one on the exhibition table. I am not sure if it’s a defective item. *Great job!*

    My Life in Hanoi

    I have lived in Hanoi for three years since I was a freshman at university. City life is so different from rural life/ life in the country. Before I moved to Hanoi, I lived in the country for 17 years with my family. The rural/ country life is so serene with gentle breezes, charming meadows, and pleasant people. Since I started living in the city, it has been a shock. I could not cross the road myself. (Living in the city has been shocking, I can't even cross the road by myself.)

    Hanoi is an animated place with a high living standard (standard of living). If you want to buy something, you must consider the price carefully, or you will spend too much money, and I am not a good bargainer. People in Hanoi get a higher salary than people living in the country, but they are under a lot of pressure, such as working on a deadline, paying high rents, paying more for food, etc. …On average, I need 3 million VND per month to cover my life/ expenses. I feel life here is quite tiring with work and often stressful. 
    In the mornings, traffic is always congested, making people feel tired before they get to their destinations. In summer, the temperature rises to 33- 36 degrees Celsius. That, together with polluted air caused by car emission, makes going out during that time seem extremely difficult.

    On the other hand, living in Hanoi also has many advantages. In the city, there are also a lot of entertainment centers. People can go there to relax after working or studying hard.
    Hanoi is famous for its landmarks, such as many skyscrapers, Ba Dinh Square – Uncle Ho's mausoleum, the old town, or the big church. It is also well-known for delicious food, of course! I like walking around the old quarters in Hanoi, drinking coffee, or drinking beer on Ta Hien every weekend with friends. It is quite interesting/fun.
    If I had a choice, I would go home to live with my family. But life does not have many options (there are not many options in life), so I will try to accomplish the goal I set when I arrived in Hanoi.

    *I added a few re-phrasing suggestions in parentheses, but overall well done!*

    A few sentences. Are there any mistakes?

    Below a description from a book I'm reading.

    The first painter was very self-confident. He stood tall, spoke loudly, and enjoyed joking around. The second painter was completely different from the first; he was not very sure of himself. He knew that he had talent, but he didn't like promoting himself. To be honest, he really didn't even know how. 


    Great work! I hope this helps.

    Hi Helen! To "be on the same page" as someone means that you understand each other and there is no miscommunication between you. For example: "I want to make sure that we're on the same page, you will do the research and I will do the report, right?" "I don't think we're on the same page about the schedule. I will come in at noon instead of nine o'clock, ok?" I hope this helps!

    I think A would say "How's my coffee coming along", "Is my coffee ready?", "Is the coffee almost done?" If the coffee isn't ready yet, B could say "It's still brewing", "It's almost done", "It'll be ready in a minute". I hope this helps!

    Please correct me!!!

    Last week, one of my dear clients attended a workshop in Vienna for graphic designers to present their new brand. It was a two-day global event, with about 50 participants from all over the world. This workshop aimed to build a strong and recognizable brand and to make advertising materials similar in each country.
    I am proud to be a designer for a such professional marketing team. I wish all companies had such a serious attitude toward their branding. It is incredibly important, as one of the most famous brands in the world, to have professional and streamlined marketing. We should be ambitious, shouldn't we?

    Great Job! I changed a few things for flow, but it was overall very well written. I removed the word "identity" because the word brand already encompasses the meaning of identity in this context.
