Announcements
As a Canadian, I am actually very familiar with both American English and British English. Canadian English is a mix of American and British English. My students from Japan and other countries tell me that I am great at explaining English grammar and vocabulary with patience and kindness.

I love reading, and I lived and taught English in Japan for thirteen years (until the spring of 2022). I loved Japan's friendly people, the food, the culture and history, and also the literature. Oh yes and I loved the izakaya life!

    Thank you for correcting my diary. Your feedback was knowledgeable and beneficial. I realized I had been mixing up the usage of "which '' and "that" through your comment. I had thought those two were replaceable. I'll be careful not to make the same mistake again. I hope you'll check my essay again.

    Thank you for the correction. I will continue practicing. I love this sentence “Like other household tasks, regardless of gender, cooking should be a shared responsibility.” It has a strong message.

    Thank you so much for your corrections and explanations! Previously, my daughter and I made a Christmas wreath, so she may think that a Christmas tree can also be made by ourselves. However, I will buy a Christmas tree instead of make one. Best regards.
