A few weeks ago I started two new businesses in at the same times: One is a cleaning service and the other is a swimming team. In my w view, the swimming school will be more succsessful successful. After I had advertised my swimming lessons, I got received more calls in connection regarding with swimming lessons than with cleaning services. Last week I could only clean just two appartements apartments, but as for my swimming lessons, I had apply more than 18 students apply! Although the cleaning substances are more cheaper than the swimming pool's rental price, I think working on my own swimming school will be more profitable.
Thanks for reading,and correcting.---------------------------------------------------------

Dear Willson,
I've corrected your notebook entry.Overall, great job!
I would recommend that you review singular and plural nouns, especially when using adjectives (because adjectives need to "agree" with the noun they describe). Also, "people" is plural and irregular, so we don't need to add and -s to the end of it.
I also recommend a quick review of definite vs indefinite articles...these are always tricky for nonnative speakers when writing in English! Lastly, please practice using the preposition, "during" more. Here's a quick link for a review: https://www.englishgrammar.org/prepositions-time/-Ryan

Small Goblins
I lost a my pencil. I lost a my eraser. I lost a my key. No, it is not my fault. Surely, there surely are some small goblins.They are good at and like hiding some things of mine, and they like to do that. In addition Additionally, I can't don't notice when they are moving to their targets hiding spots and what they bring carry around with them. On the top of that, they also have the skill ability to cut out erase of my memory of where I put them my things.
I have some items to insects, so I can call them to get out of my house. But I don't have any cards to them. I have visited some libraries in order to find out a way to slay them at some times. Although I have found out the a way, it always slips from my mind by them.
What should I do?

Recently, I saw a film called "The Picture of Dorian Gray", starred by Ben Barnes (is the same person that starred as Prince Caspian in "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian").
Here is my correction on your notebook entry.
-Ryan
The Picture of Dorian Gray
The history is about a younger man that fell in love for with his your own image, like the myth of Narcissus narcissus' myth, that He makes a pact to stay young forever while his painting gets older. Over time, Dorian is taken by selfishness and vanity, doing terrible things terrible, letting your the picture that reflects his soul, horrible. which horribly reflect his soul.
The genre of this film is drama. I really recommend this film because the history is very well built, in fact, it's based on the book of the written by Oscar Wild and it's a classic.
(My book is the 1965 version*)
