Announcements
I am available every day, and I usually respond within 24 hours.
Hobbies/Travel
I enjoy reading (especially Harry Potter and Haruki Murakami), writing (fiction as well as academic papers), playing piano, playing video games (especially Japanese RPGs), and studying the Japanese language. My favorite country that I have visited is Japan! There are so many amazing things to see in your country!
Message from the instructor
I will be happy to help you produce clear, accurate English compositions while giving you additional information on how English works. I appreciate how difficult it must be for Japanese speakers to learn English, and so I will try my best to help you learn the language's complexities. I pay very close attention to details. In particular, I am sensitive to small nuances in meaning. I have studied some Japanese (although I am still a beginner), so I have an idea how different the two languages are. As a result, I can sometimes see what the original intention was according to Japanese grammar, and I can try to find a natural English equivalent. I am available to correct texts any day. I will be able to correct the text within 24 hours.

    Thank you for correcting my essay. Your explanations were easy to understand, and the alternative phrases were useful. In particular, I did not know the difference between “pay for” and “pay to,” and the phrase “beyond capabilities,” so you helped me expand my vocabulary. Thanks again!

    David san Thank you for your stimulating advice, which made me again realize how logical English is and how long the way of my learning is. I see "society has no diversity" is illogical. "Society" doesn't do the action, but "tendency" does the action. As the result of the action of "tendency", "society" is in a state of no diversity. In Japanese, even if the subject of the sentence is "tendency", it doesn't matter that "society has no diversity." Of course, this illogicality is due to the illogicality of myself, but I think it is mainly because of the illogicality of Japanese language itself. Best regards, ie1133

    David san Thank you for your kind and useful corrections. The explanation under is quite interesting. “I don’t feel like doing “ sounds more like I have a chance to do something in real. In order to sound more hypothetical, “would not like to do”is appropriate. In addition, I appreciate your kind advice you give me, when I try to use my original way of expression, such as "be out of my appetite." I have little knowledge about English collocations, but I have enough in Japanese. I often try some expressions in English, which are associated from ones in Japanese. In spite of my broken English, you always return me some practical recommendations. Thank you again. Best regards, ie1133
