Announcements
Hello, my name is Tama, I'm from England and I am pleased to meet you. I love teaching because I am always learning from my students...every day I learn more and more about Japan! My other passion is travel, I love to explore new places, see new things, meet new people and try new food. I haven't made it to Japan yet, but I hope to soon. :-) As well as English I also speak Spanish and Haitian Creole fluently, and I have been teaching language skills to all levels of students since 2006. I can't wait to meet you!
Hobbies/Travel
I love to travel, to meet new people, learn about new cultures, try new foods. I spend my time between the Dominican Republic - I love the warmth of sun, and the beautiful beaches, and England - I love the beautiful green countryside and the history you can find in nearly every town and city.

    Hello Ms. Tama, Thank you very much for your correction, I'm so glad to see you again! I didn't know that "skill" has both councable and uncountable. The meaning of "skill" as an uncountable noun is close to "level", right? I'd like to raise my English skills with this service. :-) Best regards, Ayako Nara

    Thank you for your comments, Tama-sensei. I'm always confusing how to use 'the'. I know the usage of 'the' as just a knowledge from my textbook. But I can not use it practically. That's a problem. But I would like to practice more and get the right way to use 'the' as soon as possible. Thank you.

    Dear Teacher Tama, Thank you so much for your through explanation. The common understanding for the meaning of 'born again' was surprising. to me. Thank you for teaching me. As for this/that and these/those, I will pay more attention from now on. By the way, I always thought 'have the time' is used when asking time. (do you have a watch?)

    Dear Teacher Tama, Thank you for showing me alternative expressions. 'I give him my undivided attention while he talks about his ideas...' That's a nice one.

    Thank you Tama-sensei. Your comments are really helpful to improve my English skills. I took a basic mistakes in this task. Verb without 's' was one thing. I used 'single' with 'the' because we could say 'the rich' instead of saying 'rich people'. However, in this case, I understood we can not use 'the single' for 'single people'.

    Dear Teacher Tama, I was using the words, "wish" and "hope" in the same manner without realizing that they have different meanings. Thank you very much for your explanation. Best regards, KTP
