Friendly Canadian teacher who loves English writing. I taught conversational, vocational and business English in Japan for four years.

    Thank you for your review. My working style has been changed to home based after the pandemic, so I need to manage my morning routine. I perfectly learned the differences of "have noticed" and "noticed". Thank you!

    Thank you for your review. I sometimes really want to eat curry with naan suddenly instead of my homemade curry. On the other hands, cooking curry is very easy,and I prefer to add lots of ingredients in it.

    Thank you so much for your corrections and explanations! According to the 1st sentence, I learned the difference between "to hand" and "to hand over." I will use each of them correctly. According to the 3rd sentence, what I wanted to write is "She may do this to try to wake us up because she knows that we put on socks when we get up." as you showed. My original sentence didn't have enough information, and your explanation is very helpful for me! Best regards.

    Thank you so much for your corrections and explanations! According to the 1st sentence, I learned that it focused on the action; driving, and I should have mention something related to the action. I will take necessary steps to make a natural flow of story. According to the 2nd sentence, what I wanted to write was just what you showed; the floor behind the front seats. Much appreciated! The bench I bought was needed to be assembled, so I put the parts together after returning home. Best regards.

    Thank you again! Also, thanks for sharing the situation of your story. I have been learning "Mandarin" since the beginning of this April. This is very difficult to learn pronounce, so I will practice it for a long time. It reminds me when I started to study English. It is hard, but having fun. Anyway, I did not know "the word of "something" should be used in positive sentence". Thank you. Have a nice day.

    Thanks for your comment! Yes, this was a shocking notice. I will do my best for avoiding conflicts. Also, “it is rare for a person to be shocking.” was a great information for me! Thank you.

    Thank you so much for your corrections and explanations! According to the 2nd sentence, I learned the difference between "inject" and "insert." I will use each of them for proper objects. I called the shop and got a replacement part. So I completed the dining table:) Best regards.
