I was born and raised in the United States, but I've lived in Germany, Lebanon, and Egypt. I'm an artist currently in school for nursing, and I love meeting new people! My husband and I just moved to an area with a large Hispanic population, and I would love to be able to communicate with our neighbors, especially my future patients as a nurse.

    In the modern world the vast majority of people <strike>has</strike> have changed their mind to be more responsible about the environment because of <strike>the</strike> climate <strike>changed</strike> change <strike>has started</strike>.

    ***"People" is plural, so "have" is used, not has. (Has is used for singular)

    "Climate Change" is a name, so it is treated like a proper noun. It is not conjugated and does not need articles.***

    <strike>In the first hand </strike> To begin, if we used <strike>less</strike> <strike>our</strike> private transport such as cars or motorbikes less, the pollution could be reduced. We have good prices and hours <strike>in</strike> for our public transport and I think we’re getting used to <strike>use</strike> using it.

    <strike>On the second hand </strike> Additionally, another idea would be to think about the rivers and seas; there <strike>are</strike> is a lot of rubbish <strike>on </strike>in them. People should be fined when <strike>throw whatever</strike> (either "...they throw whatever..." or "...throwing whatever...") into the water.

    *** the phrase "on one hand.... on the other hand" is normally used to describe two opposing viewpoints (for example, "one one hand, I really want dessert, but, on the other hand, I'm on a diet"). Because you are giving multiple examples and not opposing viewpoints, a different phrase works better.***

    Last but not least, it’s <strike>well</strike> beneficial to think about <strike>the</strike> recycling and the good effects of that. It’s really important to learn how to do it and to increase the use of eco-friendly products and biodegradable bags and not use so many plastic bags.

    *** "well" is an adverb, meaning it describes a verb. However, in this sentence, gramatically the word you are describing is "it" ("it's" = "it is"), which is a noun - not a verb. So an adjective must be used.***


    To sum up, in my opinion we have to take care of our planet and be aware of it.

    Good work! Very easy to understand. The only errors are small technical ones, but it is not difficult to know what you are trying to communicate. Great job!

    Un mural y fútbol ¡Buenos tardes! Escribo sobre mi dia hoy. Hoy fui al campamento de verano se llama "CCATE". Este campamento es bilingüe, pero solomente hablo íngles. Soy una maestra de arte; enseño los niños como pintar. Nosotros son pintábamos un mural a la escuela secundaria. El mural representa el mundo "micro" y el mundo "macro". Queremos los niños a tener sensitividad, para ver que no ven normalmente. Por lo tanto, el mural representa bacterias y una hormiga mas grande, además de las estrellas y montañas etcétera. Durante la campamento, nosotros jugar tamién. Hoy jugábamos fútbol. Pero, cuando los niños ver una pelota de fútbol, la clima de la campamento cambia completemente. Son muy emocionado, pero tambien algunas personas son malas de repente. Es triste. Un niño se llama un otro niño gordo, y el otro niño esta reservado y triste por el resto de la día. ¿De verdad? Es un juego. No necesita estar mala. Aparte de eso, me gusta mucho fútbol, y los niños también!

    I had two tests today. I studied hard, but it was a little difficult. I will be told the result the day after tomorrow. I'm very nervous. A good thing for me was that I have no more tests in the rest of 2017!! (more natural wording would be "I have no more tests for the rest of 2017, which is a good thing for me!") I can enjoy everything without thinking about tests!!! But I will have to start studying for them soon because I will have to take them in January, 2018. By the way, I went to a restaurant for dinner. I ate steak, and it was good. Now I'm full. I am going to go out with my friends tomorrow. I'm looking forward to it!

    Great job! :)

    Los Cuentos para Niños Aveces, leo cuentos para niños. Tengo 21 años jaja... Pero, los cuentos para niños ayudame mejorar mi español. No puedo leer cuentos para adultos, porque no conozco bastante palabras ya. Los cuentos son muy adorables. Ayer, leí sobre un osito llamado Bruno que le gustaba mucho volar en aviónes de papel. Me requerda de mis sueños. Si jovenes aprenden idíomas muy bien, posiblemente puedo aprender también a través de cuentos y preguntas y imaginación.

    Color Code: Word and Grammar Correction  / Comments

    First Practice! 

    Sorry, but I can't write well in English. However, I want to learn.
    If you take care of me, thank you. (More natural would be: "If you help me, thank you" or even better, "If you help me, I appreciate it")
    My goal is writing about programming, so I will often talk about that.
    Of course, now I will write a diary entry to introduce me.
    Well...let's start!

    First, I like to program. I have been studying since college, so I have been for five years.
    Until now, I have learned about C, C++, data structure, algorithm and TCP/IP...etc.
    I want to be a server programmer, but I have been one year (are you currently a server programmer - "I want to be a server programmer, but I have only been one for one year" , or what do you mean by "I have been one year"?). So I want to study more about server programming.


    Second, I like to play idolmaster. www
    Well, I don't talk about it, but really I like it.
    If you like it too, please message me.
    I hope to talk about idolmaster. I have no friends around who like it.
    Please answer me! I will be waiting!

    Third. I'm Korean, so...I'm a soldier now.
    I've been a soldier for 20 months, then I'm done after one month. ("Fired" means let go dishonorably")
    very very happy! soon I'm free! wwwwww

    So...finished!
    See you later!

    Good job! One suggestion - watch capitalization (I fixed it in my edits). Otherwise, very good :)

    This afternoon, I was at my parent's place.

    I had just eaten lunch; just as I was about to leave, I had to go to the bathroom really bad.

    This afternoon, I went to the bank. I had just made a deposit into my account. As I was about to ask if there are maestro check cards, I had to pick up the phone.

    Last night, I had just gotten off work and I was going to the subway station. Just as I was about to take the subway, I noticed I didn't have my phone with me.

    Money

    You should have to take into account the price of all the stuffs you don't need but you buy. Why do you buy all of those things? I could say the same of me, but I don't think I do it at all. Before maybe yes, Yes, maybe before, when I was a poor boy with a lot of thoughts inside of my head, and I used to think life was a load of rubbish. As Pepe Mujica says: "We have to learn to live with less money because money is not the most important thing." The most important thing is yourself and your family and we must learn to value the little things around us. I will tell you something: Enjoy life. It is the best you can do. Don't waste your money, instead, of it, just enjoy life. The best things in life are free. Think about that.

    El Dio Primero Cuando estuve una estudiante en la escuela secundaria, aprendí un poco español. Pero desafortunadamente, español no fue importante por mi professora y mis compañeros de clase. Hablamos en ingles mas que hablamos en español! Me rendí. Cuando fui al Alemania y Egipto, y oi los idiomas diferentes, quise aprender otra vez! Ahora, no puedo hablar español bien, sin embargo trabajo cada dia para mejorar! (por favor, edita!)

    My english learning experience

    Time flying flies, it seems to me that I was just admitted to the university, but actually , (no comma) it’s already the end of the semester, as we can see from the trees outside the window. It’s a quite different experience for me to study in the United States, and I’ve learned a lot of new things in these days, including in my dear Denise’s class. Although I’ve learned much in this semester, I know I have to learn more in the future.
    On the one hand, definitely, I have to say I’ve made much progress in this communication class. At first, I learned how to write a proper email for different situations, which is quite important for me, because we don’t have much experience writing emails before in China while Americans use it frequently in daily life (Your tense does not match here. It should be either present tense: "we don't (do not) have much experience writing emails in China..." or past tense: "we didn't have much experience writing emails before in China...") . In addition, I refined my resume several times under your help, now I’ve already received some interview invitations, which is also significant for me, and I know I can’t do it without your dedication.
    On the other hand, I know there’s more to learn as I learned more (this is awkward with both tense and where you placed the phrase. better would be (present tense):"as I learn more I know there's more to learn", or past tense: "as I learned more I knew there's more to learn" ). I feel that accent and intonation are difficulties for me, and I’m glad to spend more time in the future to practice my oral English, to do my best to speak naturally and to refine my accent. Also, I want to do more writing in the future. (or ;) I didn’t do much writing in this semester since we are from a math program, and we play with coding, algebra stuff every day. But I want to do some research in next semester, and I know it would will be important to for me to master some writing skills and do more writing practice. By next May, maybe I can finish my research, have a well-written research paper and deliver a fluent presentation.
    All in all, I’m happy for with what accomplishments I’ve achieved now, and I will work harder to realize my goal for next semester. Finally, special thanks to dear Denise and your dedicated help.
