Announcements
Hi! My specialty is providing you with the most common, natural way to express your thoughts in English. I'm not the type to simply correct your grammar. I will suggest alternative sentences that make your essay sound as if it were written by a native, English speaker. I also get all orders back to my clients within 24 hours. I look forward to working with you to develop your English skills! :)
Hobbies/Travel
I enjoy traveling! I have visited fifty-four countries in my lifetime. In Japan, I have been to Toyko, Osaka and Kyoto. I hope to return one day and climb Mt. Fuji! My other hobbies are camping, hiking and mountain climbing. I am originally from the United States, but currently live in New Zealand. It is one of the most beautiful countries in the world for people who love the outdoors.
Message from the instructor
As my new client, you should know that I will always: 1) Correct any grammar mistakes in your original sentence. 2) Teach you how to speak like a native. 3) Teach you advanced English writing and communication skills. Often, that will require me to suggest alternative sentences that are quite different from your original, but I am happy to take the time to do so because it's the quickest and most efficient way for you to learn English. :) I also like to become friends/"pen-pals" with all my clients by sharing more personal aspects of my life in the comment section at the end of each order.

    Eden, thank you so much for sharing enormously important information with me! I watched the short video about Dąbrowski. As his theory says, I went through a great deal of adversities to make mental and spiritual progress. And still, I will need to experience such difficulties in order to get further growth. For that purpose, it's definitely important to stick to my principles. "Never give in to others!" I've been thinking about these things at the back of my heart, but thanks to you, I could made a strong determination to do so! As for Vipassana meditation, I ordered a elementally guidebook on Amazon at first, but I think it's necessary to get a direct instruction by a professional person for accurate understanding, so I will go to the 10-days course when I can take long days off! You're extremely lucky you can live in such wonderful and beautiful surroundings. I'm comfortable with my current environment, but it's nothing compared to yours! I want to live in a place like that someday... By the way, in my view, people don't need to have pets if they live a safe, peaceful, and enjoyable life. So, that big decision you made was right, I think! See you next time! Yuichi

    Dear Eden, thank you for your drastic edits and suggestions that have inspired me. I will digest them to step up to the next level. By the way, I am aware of Hunza, which my Pakistani friends highly recommend to visit. I am envious of you, and looking forward to your travel updates. Enjoy the trip!

    Hello Eden, Thank you for correcting my English. You recommended me to listen to Audible in English and I never thought of that! Why didn't I come up with it? I decided to extend my subscription.

    Thank you for teaching Eden! I strongly feel that THE LAW OF ATTRACTION is working even here! From this year, I'm getting more and more confident that I have grown up to be a very advanced spiritual level! Then, I found you and Susanna! I will definitely read the book and watch the movie you recommended! (Also, I will look up 10-day courses! ) Of course, I know that adults should grow to be an infant to the degree that they can enjoy the sight of the snow! I'm very glad I got friends of spiritual seeking. We're family! Yuichi

    Thank you for teaching, Eden! I'm astonished and very glad to know that you and your wife are interested in spiritual things! I rarely find people who are enthusiastic about those issues. I've never heard of the name of that organization, but I've heard of Vipassana Meditation. It's world-famous! The name of the book is "Talks with Sri Ramana Maharshi". Ramana Maharshi is one of the greatest Indian saints in the modern ages and the book is full of information about "Advaita Vedanta" (It's the ultimate wisdom of ancient India!) To tell the truth, he's not exactly the author of that book. It's the book that people around him wrote down his teaching just as Evangelists recorded words and actions of Jesus. I'm looking forward to talking with you on this subject again! (I'm sorry I was late for replying again. Usually, I don't use my PC on the weekend in order to concentrate on meditation, but I use it a lot on weekdays! ) You're lucky you got that wonderful home, and adorable puppy! I want to look at the picture of Gari! haha! Let me know about your life from now on! Have a great day!

    Thank you for teaching, Eden! Being honest is difficult particularly in Japan. It is often said that Japanese hold back their opinion in order not to hurt others. This is the point where most foreigners are confused about us! But in my opinion, holding back excessively is not always a good thing! Japanese frequently tell a small lie. I looked up Baltit Fort on the internet. It's on the World Heritage List! It seems to be an important place as well as a beautiful site! Have a good day! See you next time!

    Thank you very much for teaching, Eden! I apologize I was late for replying. I hope your hotel room is comfortable because I stayed at the terrible hotel during my travel about five years ago! I'm looking forward to the next time!

    Thank you for teaching Eden! Thanks to you, I'm getting more and more confident about my English skills. I feel I still have to polish my English, but I have a feeling I will definitely be able to become very advanced level as a English learner! I'll try hard!

    Thank you very much for teaching, Eden! I think the dialogue in Hemingway works is not only realistic but also poetic! He's more than just a realist writer! I'm looking forward to your next journal! Have a great night!

    Thank you for your corrections as always. I googled “Karimabad, Hunza Valley” and saw beautiful mountains and towns in photos. I look forward to hear your life there! I have a personal question for you. What do you think is the best way to learn English? I usually study English after my full time job. I use IDIY, Duolingo language APP, English grammar textbook. In the future, I want to become as an English tutor like you, so it would be great if you give me an advice!

    Thank you for teaching, Eden! I'm glad to know we have interest in common. At first, I read literary works in Japanese, but in these days, I'm trying to understand them in the original texts. Other than Goethe and Shakespeare, my favorite authors are Ernest Hemingway, William Faulkner, Jonathan Swift, and so on. I also like French and German literature but I don't understand French and German for now,,, I want to read them in the original someday. I googled Gilgit. Its landscape is spectacular! I saw that Gilgit is a holy place of Buddhism. I assume there are a lot of Buddhist architecture. Am I correct? I hope you and your wife keep traveling safely and delightfully!
