Hobbies/Travel
I love to be in the countryside and to go running with my dog. My husband and 3 sons also love to be outdoors, especially surfing, climbing and skiing. I do not enjoy heights so the climbing is not for me! My favourite pursuits are reading, going to the theatre to see plays and the ballet; I am passionate about conservation and ecology. My favourite holidays have been to Scandinavia and Canada - I do love snow and mountains! One day I would love to see the snow and mountains in Japan.
Message from the instructor
I am passionate about the acquisition of language, whether it is as a first or second language and have loved all the teaching I have done in this field. I find languages and local dialects to be quite fascinating! I look forward to seeing your work and ensuring that by the time I have finished, you have all you need for your work to read as beautiful, natural English! I know I will enjoy this very much.

    Thank you so much for your corrections and explanations! According to the 1st sentence, I learned that "to feel bad" is generally used for an emotional state. I will use it properly in my future sentence. According to the 2nd sentence, I learned "time goes on" is right to say. According to the 3rd sentence, I learned the difference between "catch a cold" and "catch cold." Best regards.

    Thank you so much for your corrections and explanations! According to the 2nd sentence, I learned the phrase "a bit of a temperature." I will use it in the next chance. According to the 3rd sentence, I learned that there was no need to put "on" before "this weekend." I will use it correctly in my future diary entries. Best regards.

    Dear Teacher Cressy san Thank you very much for your kind corrections with various alternatives. I'm very happy when I read your kind sentence: "You have used impressively fluent vocabulary and some excellent sentence structures which native speakers would use." >"once there was evidence that Columbus was not the first man to find the New World, should we still see him as its discoverer?' = I prefer this sentence because 'evidence' sounds to me more objective and mature. >'It's getting too late, I'm calling it' - meaning I'm making the decision now This is used in a medical scenarios when doctors decide to stop trying to save someone because they are clearly dead 'I'm calling it. Time of death 0400' = This is new to me. >'Let's call it quits' - let's finish and move on = This is quite new to me. I looked it up in the dictionary, which says "to agree that an argument is settled'. I see. >'should he be named' >'should he be celebrated' >'should he be known as' = I see. 'celebrate' is OK too. >The way I see it, the answer is 'Yes', because history is a cultural narrative. = I like this due to being more concise. >'Part of me wants to know why he left' >'Part of the reason I am leaving is because the work is not stimulating enough' >'He said that part of the problem is very long working hours' = I see how to use 'part'. >Therefore, once a story has been created, inherited down through generations and has come to form a important part of culture, then we should admit and respect it as history. = I see "inherited down through generations" It will be too long further. Please let me quit because I've got to a good place to leave off. Thank you again. Best, ie1133 \\\\\\\\\\
