Announcements
Hi there! I'm Sara Rose from New York, specializing in helping learners with practical, real-life English, as well as all kinds of exam/test materials (Eiken, TOEIC/TOEFL, IELTS, etc.), cultural topics and current issues. I especially enjoy reading and explaining topics on travel, the U.S./UK, culture, news, music, art, fashion, and all things New York. You're welcome to send in your writing today on virtually any subject and I would gladly check and correct it for you! My proofreading focuses on natural-sounding English by using the most common, latest, or trending words/phrases/expressions, with some difficult/confusing grammar fully explained. If you are an administrative office person, a customer service rep, or a first-time international online shopper, I am here to help you write clear, courteous business email in English, especially for apparel and other general purchases. Looking forward to showing you how fun and rewarding it is to be able to communicate clearly in this universal language. Let's get started!

    Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me. Although addressing concerns the chief priest has is understandable, I don't think that residents in Kyoto expect traditional religious ceremony. Since I was born in Kyoto, circumstance of Kyoto has changed drastically from one of the domestic popular cities to a world-class travel destination now. Not only travellers but also huge number of residents look forward to having a spectacle entertainment experience at the Gion Festival. The three consequtive nights before the parade day are called Yoiyama, so-called eve of the parade of the festival. Many stalls are set up along streets at night, and the floats are decorated with lanterns and traditional solemn music while parking along these streets, creating a splended fantasy ambience. Young people such as high school, university students, and young adults wear yukata robes and enjoy this colorful and gorgeous atmosphere. It resembles to the atmosphere of a night parade at Disneyland park plus classical music. Everyone now enjoys the Gion Festival as an entertainment show, except for the elderly who respect tradition. During the period of the festival, it is said that around 1.5 million people visit Kyoto to enjoy the event. For the reference, the number of Kyoto city population is 1.5 million. Now I live outside Kyoto and usually avoid visiting Kyoto during the festival because of heavy traffic congestion and large crowds. It is really mess. Best regards, 5971mak

    Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me. Currently, the air conditioners are now one of essential appliances, but they have negative impacts to human health. So users ahould be familiar with benefits and disadvantages to prevent unfamiliar negative influence. Civilization is not always beneficial but it occasionally can be harmful unintentionally.

    Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are useful to me. Many Japanese, especially female workers are also nervous not to make their shoes smudged with muddy water during the rainy season. Since they think that elegant outfit is a part of their good impression to others, the droplets of muddy water damage their decent atmosphere. Therefore, a waterproof spray becomes popular not to get their beatuful shoes dirty. Best regards, 5971mak

    Dear SaraRoseNY, Thank you for your informative explanation and answering my question. I understood how to use "could." I often wrote "I could..." as my ability in the past, but it can be confusing, so I'll try to choose "I was able to..." from now on. The positive tone which you revised for me was totally suitable to the situation. I tended to choose negation, but I want to think and write constructively, so I have to change it. I also appreciate your agreement to my statement about human nature. I will send another writing soon! Have a great week! Best regards, mkawa
