Message from instructor
Experienced English teacher from the US, living in Japan.
Hobbies / favorite countries / countries visited
My favorite hobbies are music, weightlifting, and continuing to improve my Japanese language skills. Lately, learning and understanding the meaning of lyrics to Japanese songs I like has become a fun project.
Approach to corrections
I try to preserve a customer's original words and writing style as much as possible unless "drastic change," "formal," "casual," etc. is requested. I also try to be as intuitive as possible so that my corrections don't result in failing to get the point across that they're trying to make.

    Thank you for your feedback. Your correction from “must be” to simple “is” just addresses what I wanted to mean here better! Your suggestion about the article “the” in my second sentence is also helpful for me understand how I should use with the phrase “kind of”.

    Thank you for your correction! I read everything you wrote. I think you spent so much time to correct my sentences. I’ve learnt English by speaking, so I don’t really understand the grammar. The details you explained in the correction have helped me a lot. Thank you for your help :) I will definitely request you again!
