I am thorough and pay attention to detail. I like to suggest different ways of phrasing sentences in English. I aim to pass on as much knowedge about English as is possible through text correction. I like to be helpful, positive and encouraging.

    Dear Ms. Julia Vivian, Thank you so much for revising my English description and giving me kind words. As I am a medical doctor, I often read articles, emails or advertisements relating to my profession. In those materials, the word "physician" is used the most to describe us. However, I understand that the choice of the words is different between the conversation among medical professionals and the one among the other people. It's the same here in Japan. Thank you for your great advice. I hope you have a great weekend! Best wishes Mitsuhiro Haga

    Dear Ms. Julia Vivian, Thank you very much for revising my English email. The situation is the same here in Japan. Sending real New Year's cards has been less and less popular for this decade. Instead, sending messages through smartphones has become more and more popular especially in young people. However, I am looking forward to reading the New Year's cards from old friends of mine in the morning of January 1st. I also hope you have a great weekend! Best wishes, Mitsuhiro Haga

    Thank you very much for correcting my English sentences and giving alternative sentences. The Japanese style of curry is one of the most popular food in Japan. We eat curry with white rice instead of naan.

    I mde a mistake again. I mistook “harsh environment” for “hurt environment.” That is just as you pointed out. Mt. Fuji has been awarded the World Heritage Site, so that the environment is ‘not’ damaged. It’s a great help to me that you provide such wonderful corrections!

    Dear Ms. Julia Vivian, Thank you so much for your revision. I admire that you always do your work very soon. As you point out, the traditional calendar system called "eto" was introduced from China. We owe a lot of things to China such as Chinese characters, calendar, art, literature, and so on. It's shame that the relationship between China and Japan has been getting worse nowadays. After having started the study for the exam, I found how difficult it is! I'm desperate now, but I'll do my best to pass the exam. Christmas season is around the corner, our city has been lit up these days. I like to see the scenery of the city decorated with Christmas colors. I hope you also have a great time! Best wishes, Mitsuhiro Haga

    Dear Ms. Julia Vivian, I always appreciate that you revise my essay in such a short time! I had been so busy with my work these days that I could not spare my time to study English through IDIY. I'm going to take a test called "eiken", which is an English proficiency test in Japan, in January 2020. I have to study so hard to pass the test! IDIY is the best method for me to learn English with the great teachers, so I will study much harder than ever. I hope you have a nice day too. Best wishes

    Thank you for your messages every time. Your information is very useful. Furthermore, I’m glad to hear sometimes British circumstances. ‘Charge functions’ and ‘pocket money’ I wrote before were my mistakes, and correct words were ‘charging function’ and ‘money in my pocket’, respectively. I really appreciate your expert corrections.

    Dear Ms. Julia Vivian, Thank you very much for your revision. Japanese people have special feelings towards school lunch. Some restaurants serve school lunch in old days, and they are popular in elder people. The old school lunch menus remind them of good old days. It may be difficult to change the way of Japanese school lunch system soon because it is well established. However, I think some reformation will be needed in the near future. Best wishes, Mitsuhiro Haga

    Dear Ms. Julia Vivian, Thank you very much for your revision. "Kotatsu" which is shown in the picture is a wonderful heating system. It is indispensable to stay warm in Japanese winter. One thing you have to take care about kotatsu is that staying in kotatsu is too comfortable, and you cannot get out from it! If you have an opportunity to visit Japan in winter, I do recommend to try it! Best wishes, Mitsuhiro Haga

    Sorry for the confusing phrase. While writing, I became so sleepy and only remember I was content to have submitted a piece. Thank you for corrections.

    Dear Julia Vivian, Thank you very much for your correction and encouraging message! My boss, the "middle-aged woman", is a devout Christian and she prays everyday. Actually, I thought praying was just for keeping a peace of mind; now I think that praying could controll your energy in any ways and it could be shared with the others. Anyway, it was an interesting experience. Again, I really appreciate your help everytime! Best regards, Ayako Nara

    Dear Julia Vivian, Thank you very much for your correction! Yes, they were very cute; their honneymoon lasted until the heating system was fixed. The cats' owner, Guna, bought Tommy because he thought Susie need a company to play with. Unfortunately, Susie was already a grown up cat at that time and she didn't need any other cats. Again, I really appreciate your help as always! Best regards, Ayako Nara
