    My boss( Japanese) always insults my accent

    I work at a cram shool <strike>and</strike> teaching classical Japanese.
    My boss teaches mathematics, science and sometimes English.

    He often makes me read English sentences in front of his students, and
    says how terrible my accent is.

    My English sounds Japanese but <strike>he</strike> his sounds Japanese too.

    Hi Mika-san! Nice to meet you. 

    No many problems in this post except for spelling.  That’s not a big deal since English speakers can't spell either!

    I'm sorry to hear that you such a horrible boss.  I think the boss only does it because he is insecure about his English abilities, so don't worry about him!  From what I've seen of your other entries your English seems quite good. :)

    Hello :) Nice to meet you Feellove.  There was only small amount of mistakes, mostly problems relating to plurals. The things in brackets are my suggestions for more natural sounding english -- though it's that's a very subjective thing.

    日記:日本のために祈る  初めて日本の大地震を聞いたとき、日本にいる友達が心配で、心配で、たまらなかった。でも正直。。。何をすればいいかもわからなかった。すぐでも連絡したかったけど、連絡することも難しかったし。。。皆、族や友達からたくさんの連絡があって、私が連絡してもその人に迷惑じゃないかと心配した。幸い、日本人の友達や日本にいる友達のみんなフェイスブックを使っていから、我慢してフェイスブックでメッセジーを送ったまま、何かの情報を待っていた。  情報を待っていた時間は耐え難かった。一時間前、最後の友達からメッセジーをもらった。彼は仙台出身だから、一番心配だった。でも、彼のメッセジーを読んで、被害者はどんな目に遭っているかが垣間見えた。あんなに元気だった彼は。。。こういった。「今でも涙が止まらない。ニュースより酷い状況だ。仙台に帰りたくない。。。あんなの仙台じゃない」私にも涙が出た。それにしても、日本にいる全員の友達が無事だと聞いて、少し安心した。しかし、その後私はこう思った。日本にいる人はどうだろう。。。被害に遭いながら、大切の人達を心配するなんて。。。  そのメッセジー読んだ後、他の友達がアップした写真を見て、今まで見た日本の大地震の写真より衝撃的だった。その写真はスーパーの空っぽのシェルフだった。今被害地食料と水がないことは以前からわかったけど。。。何もないスーパーを見て実感した。なんて酷いありさまなのって。  地震のこと聞いた直後、私は、被害者に力になりたいと思った。私はどうやって被害者の支えになるかを考えた。赤十字社寄付して、私の職場と友達や彼氏職場で義援金を集めている。でも、今、事情をもっと把握しているから、その他に、何かもっとしたいけど。。。何をすればいいかわからない。  でも、私は日本はこの混乱を乗り越えて、もっと強くなると信じている。  日本のため祈りを。

    Hi Sho-san :).  My corrections aren't really 'mistakes' - it's more of a suggestions for more flowing/natural English.  I only did this as when I read your entry you wanted to strive for more natural/fluent English.  Keep up the great work :)

    Points of view is the correct one. http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/british/point-of-view The rule of thumb is that the noun gets pluralized. The noun here is "point" and "of view" is the adjectival clause. example. "son-in-law" which becomes "sons-in-law"
