Dear MessageMentor, Thank you very much for teaching me that expanding on my reasoning or refining my word choice is important for promoting my sentences. I noticed that my sentences were lack of reasoning after reading your explanation. For example, you suggested alternatives, "The Japanese government should substantially increase its investment in education to improve the quality and accessibility of learning across the country." By adding, "to improve the quality and accessibility of learning across the country," the sentence became clear enough to communicate the exact meaning of the sentence. I realized the importance of stating the reason why I mentioned my opinion. Perhaps I have been making the same mistakes since I was a university student. I understood clearly that my sentence would be more persuasive with adequate reasoning. I will pay attention to tell the reasons to my statements to make my sentences more understandable and assertive. I am happy that I could notice that. What's more, I would like to tell my pleasure that we both have the same sensibility when meeting something impressive. About the latest essay, you mentioned we're on the same wavelength as I appreciate the phrase, "The crystal curtain sparkled with a bittersweet beauty." I like this feeling when I meet the same internal reactions to something moving with someone. I admire your sensibility so much and I am happy to be able to meet you. I am always grateful for your warm support. Best regards, atsuko5
Dear MessageMentor, Thank you very much for your correcting and suggesting alternatives. To choose the correct tense is confusing. However, I think I will be better at choosing the correct tense after I exercise a lot. In the corrected sentence, "I made up my mind not to buy anything because I had run out of money," I can understand clearly that the running out of money happened before my decision as you explained. I need to exercise writing correct tense like this. I was pleased that you complimented me for my skill to turn a small moment into something interesting and detailed. Your kind encouragement gives me power. I like your quote, " The man who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stone." Especially, I was moved by your explanation, "Every single piece you've written, each word you've carefully chosen, is like carrying away a small stone. It might feel like a slow process at times, but all these small steps are leading to something much bigger." I hope so. I would like to continue my every day practice like moving little stone, and I would like to reach a place where I see the mountain becoming small. Thank you very much for giving me precious comments. They help me think deeply and calmly, showing me the way I could proceed. I am really grateful for your warm support. Best regards, atsuko5
Dear MessageMentor. Thank you for your detailed feedback! Although picture description is still challenging for me, I think I’m getting the hang of it thanks to you! I took on the challenge of writing the third essay. I’m looking forward to learning from you! Sincerely,
Dear MessageMentor, Thank you for the useful advice as always! I'm sure it'll help me improve my English.:) I'm excited for the next lesson！ Sincerely,
Dear MessageMentor, Thank you very much for your corrections and thoughtful warm advises. Your words really encourage me. In the message box above, you said, "Keep trusting your instincts, and don’t be afraid to explore even deeper in your writing. You’re on a great path!" I was moved by this comment as it shows me the road that I can proceed as a writer. I like your alternatives. For example, instead of writing "She bought the presents for us there," you suggested, "She bought the gifts for us while she was in Australia, as a way to show her appreciation." I was impressed with your adding, "as a way to show her appreciation." I thought this adding could be come up with if I think calmly and deeply to express in better thoughts. I should be kind and honest to both reader and myself, then, good expressions may come to my mind. You teach me how to write in good faith. That state of mind enables me to write what I really want to say. I like my journey to become a good writer. You made my will stronger. I am grateful for your warm support. Best regards, atsuko5

Dear MessageMentor, Thank you for educating me as always! To improve my writing, I'm planning to read newspapers and academic articles more carefully ! I'm looking forward to your next class! Sincerely,
Dear MessageMentor, Thank you very much for your corrections and suggesting alternatives. I like your alternatives very much as it expresses exactly what I wanted to say. For example, instead of writing ,"Sakuradote was pretty primitive and had a nostalgic atmosphere," you sugggested, "Sakuradote had a rustic charm and a nostalgic atmosphere, evoking memories of simpler times." In your alternative, especially I admire the phrase, "evoking memories of simpler times." The phrase reminds me of the time that I was cycling along Sakuradote and what I thought at the time. You indicate me the way to write exactly what I thought related to the events I experienced at the time. It is my first time to think that way. It enables me to write in more expanded and extended way. That was the skill that I have wanted to obtain for a long time. I need to increase my vocabularies. I will try to develop my vocabularies and go on this practice. I appreciate your warm support. Best regards, atsuko5
Dear MessageMentor, Thank you very much for your corrections and suggesting alternatives. They are really helpful for me to develop my abilities to write naturally and effectively. Your advice, "Specificity makes your writing more engaging and relatable," leads me to be able to write as I hope. For example, instead of "study writing," you suggested me to write "pursue further studies in writing." I have been longing for writing like this. To write specifically like this, I need more vocabularies. I am trying to increase my vocabularies by reading novels, watching videos, and listening to the radio programs in English. It may take me a lot of time to be able to express my thought with the right words. However, I want to acquire good English and become a good writer. I will continue my efforts as I enjoy and cherish the path I am going. Best regards, atsuko5
