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.

    Dear Tom, Hello again too. Thank you for working for my entry, and I learned something about comma and the word "all" from you. It's also a good opportunity to think about if repeating word in this case is correct or not. I hope you have a great day. Best regards, m-yoshiro

    Dear Tom, Hi, hello again too. Thank you for working for my entry and giving me your kind words about my situation! It looks hard for me to handle a whole schedule to work by myself, so you should be good at doing so. I hope you have the rest of your summer vacation. Best regards, m-yoshiro

    Dear Tom-san Thank you for your cheerful message as usual! Honestly, it is difficult for non-native speakers like me to avoid the errors such as which/that issue and preposition mistakes, and your detail explanations was very helpful to deepen my understanding. I’m looking forward to meeting with you soon. Best Regards, Tucker

    Dear Tom, Hello again too. Thank you for checking my entry. I didn't noticed that I've already written 432 entries. I also appreciate you to give me explanations, especially about "that" vs "which". I often confuse which I should choose. I hope you have a great rest of the day, and stay safe. Best regards, m-yoshiro

    Thanks again for your corrections, I know a 300 word essay is challenging. I will try it when I have more time than I have now.
