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 Julia Vivian, Thank you for your revision as always. Furthermore, I appreciate that you explain the custom of "saving daylight" in the UK to me. The custom is rational for using our times effectively. However, it seems confusing to me if a clock is going back and forward regularly. I think that is the reason why it hasn't been introduced in Japan yet. It is getting colder here in Japan too. I believe the autumn is the best season in Japan. However, I feel the winter is around the corner. I hope you also have a great day! Best wishes,

    Dear Julia Vivian, Thank you so much for your revision for my English essay. Actually, I misunderstood how to say kimonos in English. That is why I wrote as "a kimono dress" to describe a kimono. By the way, it is a surprise that the word "kimono" can be used as it is in Japanese. Nowadays, we don't wear kimonos except for some special occasions such as weddings or graduation ceremonies. I know you always do a large amount of work in IDIY. I hope you do take care of yourself. Best wishes

    Dear Julia Vivian, Thank you very much for your correction and message! Recently, many foreign people come to Japan to take a medical treatment. Although they have to apply for a medical visa, many of them come to Japan with a student visa, so they don't need to pay for an expensive fee. I always have a mixed feeling on this issue, because they are using Japanese National Insurance which they have never paid for, but if they don't lie, they are not afford of the treatment and die. I hope that each countries' medical skills and national insurance system will be well maintenanced soon in the future. Again, I really appreciate your help as always. Best regards, Ayako Nara

    Dear Julia Vivian, Thank you for your revision for my English essay. I always enjoy reading your comments, but I didn't know the expression "the clocks are going back". I searched it on Google, and I found out that the time changes according to the season in the UK! We don't have such a regulation in Japan, so it appears to be a liitle confusing to me. There are certainly discussion about introducing summer time in Japan too, but the plan doesn't have so much popularity. I look forward to learn from you not only English language but also its culture and custom. Best wishes,

    Dear Julia Vivian, Thank you for revising my English composition. What the Japanese Halloween is different from the Western one is that the major participants are not children but teenagers or adults! I'm embarrassed to see adults are wearing the Halloween costumes in public. Fortunately, the Halloween event this year was relatively quiet, but it sometimes went wild. Anyway, I look forward to working with you too. Best wishes

    Dear Julia Vivian, Thank you for revising my English composition. I didn't know how to say the play in the picture in English. Skipping is also popular in children in Japan too. I used to enjoy skipping rope so often in my elementary school days. Today, I am working part-time in a nearby clinic. However, there are very small numbers of patients, so I can study English in my free time. I hope you have a good weekend. Best wishes,

    Dear Julia Vivian, Thank you very much for revising my English essays. I had been so busy at work in the past month, so I wasn't able to manage to write and submit English essays to you everyday. Things have finally settled down these days. I'd like to study English writing as hard as possible. Speaking of rugby, conglaturations on England rugby team ending up on the second place in Rugby World Cup. My wife and I had been fascinated by the strength, the speed and the skills of rugby players. I am looking forward to learning from you too. I hope you have a wonderful weekend! Best wishes,
