Announcements
I am available every day, and I usually respond within 24 hours. I will be on vacation from September 22 to October 6. I am very sorry for the inconvenience.
Hobbies/Travel
I enjoy reading (especially Harry Potter and Haruki Murakami), writing (fiction as well as academic papers), playing piano, playing video games (especially Japanese RPGs), and studying the Japanese language. My favorite country that I have visited is Japan! There are so many amazing things to see in your country!
Message from the instructor
I will be happy to help you produce clear, accurate English compositions while giving you additional information on how English works. I appreciate how difficult it must be for Japanese speakers to learn English, and so I will try my best to help you learn the language's complexities. I pay very close attention to details. In particular, I am sensitive to small nuances in meaning. I have studied some Japanese (although I am still a beginner), so I have an idea how different the two languages are. As a result, I can sometimes see what the original intention was according to Japanese grammar, and I can try to find a natural English equivalent. I am available to correct texts any day. I will be able to correct the text within 24 hours.

    Dear Teacher David san Thank you very much for your informative and impressive corrections. >I must say that the Paralympics are carried out, they compete each other and they keep their official records. >When the Paralympics are carried out, the athletes compete against each other and they set official records. = I think I understand your explanations you wrote in this part. These descriptions are very impressive to me in learning about English compositions. I just wanted to emphasize that the athletes were able to do the essential part of a sports competition itself. I am convinced by and satisfied with what you wrote as below; " (it has a clearer nuance in your later sentence where you used it to show that you were forced to confess an unpleasant thing)." You wrote; > Additionally, because you used the present tense, I think you wanted to describe something that habitually/always happens during the Paralympics; > in that case, we use "when X happens, Y happens" to show that these actions usually happen together. = I think this is one of the most difficult things for Japanese to learn about "the tense in English." The present tense of action verbs in Japanese has nothing to do with habitual actions. The present tense in Japanese mainly means a simple one-time action. I like the next sentence; > "The Paralympics are being carried out, so the athletes are competing against each other and they are setting official records." Besides this point, your explanations are always full of very impressive messages in various angles. Thank you again,

    Thank you for your edition. I am happy to have learned you say “ retired to get the tithe,” not “take the tithe” in the third sentence.

    Dear Mr. David, いつもながら迅速な対応に感謝します。 "disagree on allowing my child"の原文については、 何故か「"with"でなく"on"であること」「"to"がないこと」が自分でも理解出来なかったのですが、 自分の知らないnative speakerの表現なのかなと思って、確認も兼ねてそのまま使わせてもらいました。笑 丁寧に指摘してくれて、とても助かりました。有難うございました。 それではまた、宜しくお願いします。 Have a good day! Ryo

    Thank you for your super fast edition. I am wondering why you have changed the word “ shop” to “ restaurant” in the first sentence.
