Ben Franklin learned the martial arts as an apprentice to ofBruce Liu, His father wanted him to be a carpenters, but he has little aptitude in learning it(I can´t tell if you are talking about attitude or skillfulness, so: he didn´t have the right attitude or he wasn´t very skilled), he doesn't didn´t have the same dexterity as a master craftsman, He was so depressed one day,One day when he was very depressed, he saw someone practicing martial arts in a park, and he was so attracted by it, the man practiced the martial arts adroitly, obviously he is was an ambidextrous person .so Then Ben Franklin determined decided to study the martial arts ,He wanted to be a versatile person 、Finally, he became an apprentice to of the man named Bruce LiuHi Sara, I made some small corrections, but the text is quite clear!
Just don´t forget to use the past tense to talk about events that took place in the past.
Cheers! :)

In the beginning of the new year, my mother and I have made an arrangement: I have to make my bed every morning before breakfast, don't make any noise in the afternoon (while she's having her nap) and to do the cleanings at least once at week. In exchange, she helps me doing to do my homework, pick me up me ,doing the shopping once at month and doing sport every Monday. Actually, she's always accomodating with me and she helps me doing to do a lot of things, so I thinkg that it could be nice to make a promise to her and be a better doughter.Hi Fulvia!
I made some small corrections, but overall it is a very well written text.
To keep in mind:
Help + (to) verb in the infinitive
And if you are talking about a specific date in the past (like in this case "the beginning of the new year"), you should use simple past and not present perfect.
Hope this helps! :)

Even though I have some freshly made chicken fillet in my fridge, today I am going to make a classic, baked macaroni and cheese casserole. Since I have a pack of macaroni, some milk, a couple of eggs and some cheese for the sousesauce, I think I have got pretty much everything needed (or: I need). But wait a second -- I checked the recipe and I also need some flour. I do not think I have any, given that I do not cook much. And I also ran out of butter, so I need to buy some. Or maybe I will ask my neighbors to lend me some of the ingredients I lack...If not butter but at least a cup of flour.Hi Annie, great writing, as you can see almost nothing to correct ;)
The second one is actually because i think it sounds better, so it´s more of a second option.
Hope it helps!

I was in Berlin and Paris on last week. It was my 1stth (first) trip to abroad, so I am was a little bit worried.I traveled with my best friend Anastasia.
I didn’t expect something anything special from Berlin, but this city impressed me. It’s quiet, cozy and eco-friendlylogical place (or: quite a cozy and eco-friendly place). There are a lot of bikes and bike’s roads (or cycling roads). Recently, i learned I’ve known that Berlin is the vegan capital of Germany. And it is. Because there are is a huge range of vegan, sugar free, gluten free products in supermarkets and markets. We bought a lot of avocado, raspberries and rice. It’s They were very tasty!
Hi Mariya! Great text! I think i would love Berlin :)
The text is clear, but I made some corrections. For example, "quiet" is the opposite of "loud", and "quite" is an adverb used before adjective ("quite cozy" or "quite friendly").
Hope this helps!

Sometimes it is quiet quite tough to be quiet, especially if you are talkative. But we don't think before speaking and with the flow mostly we usually speak a little extra too much, which leads to heart hurt other people directly or indirectly . Actually we don't have the intention to hurt them but we end up fighting with them.
I don't know how to control this, but I'm literally fed up now as I have keep having the same problem. I speak a little louder or you can say that the tone is quiet quite rude, well others think this, and my words becomes too so harsh that they get hurt, which is actually not my intention.
I know that it is bad to speak too loud louder or too much but I don't know how to control it and due to this I end up being looking like an arrogant person, which I'm not.
People think that I am a girl with lots of attitude and I don't know how to deal with it !!!!!!
Suggestions are most welcome :)Hi Shivangi, this is a good text, I just made some small corrections.
Remember, "quite" is an adverb that you usually use before adjectives ("quite loud", "quite tall"), and quiet is an adjective than means the opposite of loud ("she is a quiet person")
Hope this helps! :)

Yes, it's a really true statement. People, who read books tend to live longer than others. But I have some ideasthink that onessome people are drawn onto opinions of random fellows around me i don´t really understand what you mean here, so excuse me if my correction changes the meaning of the sentence).. So there is a kind of people who could answer in contradiction forgive a completely different answer to the a question of about how to spend life in the best waywhat´s the best way to spend life. Some people don't like reading at all. And they say about it: "I 'm not going to read unless it brings me a profit, reading is too boring. Let's go out to drink!" That is their answer.
To be honest I can't neglectdismiss this idea completely, because life is not only about a lifespan (what do you mean?), life is not about how well educated you are, nor about how much wealth you get either.
I presume that life's quality mostly inhabits such rooms that we call feelings, emotions, satisfaction.
So in that context, it does not matter how long you are going to leave your footprints for on the earth. Much more important is what are your obtain get out of your lifeving. If you don't satisfy with reading books or periodicalsreading books or periodicals doesn´t satisfy you, might maybe the best way to resolve the problem is just to give it up.. and to kick off learning how to sing singing, for instance.Hi Sergey, nice text! :) The topic is really interesting!
I made some corrections that i think make the text flow better. And as i wrote above, a couple of parts were a bit unclear to me.
"Neglect" means not to take care of something/someone, while "dismiss" means to consider something unworthy,
Hope it helps! Have a good day!

Hi Jean,
I made some small changes, but the text is really good!
Used to + inf - This expression is used to talk about something we did regularly in the past, it´s a nice expression.
"would" is also used to talk about past habits.
Hope it helps!
Have a good day! :)

ABy pure chance, I found the website: www.couchsurfing.com.
Then I became a couchsurfer and a host.
My couchsurfer experience happened in Thailand and Turkey. (Or: I travelled in Thailand and Turkey as a couchsurfer)
My second place iswas Chiengmai. My host has had a big house. He iswas humorous and generous . Fortunately , he has had a lot of time to take us around in thatthe city.
But it made me a little worried that couchsurfing alone. But I was a little worried about couchsurfing alone.
So when I travelled to Turkey, I took my mom (with me). It was great to have the a local to lead us in our travel. But my mom seemed don’t get the pleasant of couchsurfingdidn´t seem to enjoy the couchsurfing experience, Bbecause she didn’t know what we said.
So if you want to be a member of couchsurfing, the language is the basic.speaking the same language is essential.
I’d like to experience how the locals live, to eat what they eat, to walk around the local market, to go to the places where only the locals know.
So couchsurfing is a very good platform for me to achieve that.
Not only am I a couchsurfer, but also a host. My couchsurfers comeI´ve had couchsurfers from Russia, Spain and New Zealand. I am very willing to share the Chinese food, the Chinese stories, the Chinese attractions and the the real life of Chinese people to with them.
In a short, I like the way to exchange (or: to share) our cultures. I’ll always be a couchsurfer and a host.Hi! Nice text, i love couchsurfing too ;)
Remember to use the past tense to talk about experiences that already happened. I guess you already went to Chiengmai, that´s why i changed the tense.
Hope this helps! Have a good day!
