主な取得資格
B.A Honours in English Literature from Cambridge University. Certificate in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) Experience of teaching English language and literature and TEFL to school pupils and adults in groups and most particularly one-to-one. Interest in and experience of creative writing in English. I speak Spanish and French and have an keen interest in language learning and improvement. Through my daughter's learning of violin, initially by the Suzuki method,I have a great respect for and interest in learning by the mother tongue method. I see the way IDIY works as being very similar to this method in many respects and recognise the value of learning and teaching that involves native speakers. I have particular interests and experience in the arts, education, psychology, medicine, and have worked in both corporate and internal communications in business.
講師からお知らせ
I am happy to work for IDIY and to be reading and correcting the work of Japanese speaking customers. I've worked for IDIY for 12 years and find it very interesting and rewarding. My style of correction is to pay close attention to the language in your writing in terms of grammar, vocabulary, style and content. I see each customer as having different needs in your learning journey and I take care to respond to you and your writing as the developing work of an individual. In my comments and personal message you will find that I tend to discuss in some depth with you the content of your writing and you can learn from this personalised discussion as well as from specific corrections and suggestions for alternative wording where appropriate. I do my best to encourage you in your writing with constructive help along with a rigorous and disciplined approach. Your questions, additional notes and feedback are always welcome and can be an important part of the communication between you as the customer and me as the instructor. I am happy to receive requests and develop a rapport so that you have continuity in your learning and to help you with Basic and/or Advanced corrections as well as with proof-reading. I look forward to reading your writing and to writing back to you and I hope that you enjoy IDIY as much as I do!
趣味・好きな国・訪問した国
I enjoy language and languages and words fascinate me. I like both reading and writing and currently attend a creative writing class. I'm a keen musician and enjoy playing the piano. I also play the violin and look forward to playing more than I have done recently. There are so many things to enjoy in Edinburgh where I live. I'm happy in the city enjoying the culture and also very much enjoy being in nature and exploring places when I have time. My now 22-year-old daughter keeps me busy and though she is very independent in some ways she is still young and growing up in a complex and busy world. I'm especially interested in the arts and feel lucky to live in a city where we have easy access to rich cultural experiences including the Edinburgh Festival. I've spent time in France, Spain, Italy, Greece, Hong Kong, Norway, Canada, America, and most recently, in Poland. I enjoyed all of them and plan to keep travelling when I have the opportunity.
添削へのこだわり・メッセージ
I very much enjoy working for IDIY and look forward to reading and helping you with your writing. I am here to help you be able to write fluently, naturally and correctly, and, perhaps above all, to communicate effectively in English what you want to say. Writing is a complex process even in one's own language. When you are writing in another language there are even more layers of complexity and it can be challenging. It can also be a lot of fun and very rewarding. As a native speaker of English I aim to share with you what is natural to me and to help and encourage you through specific corrections and adjustments and also through response to and discussion of what you are writing about in any piece you send to me through IDIY. I discuss particular aspects of your writing in detail if you ask for an Advanced correction and will give you a corrected version of your text if you ask for a Basic correction. In both cases I aim to have a sort of conversation with you across the internet and to connect with you through language so that you can absorb natural English and further develop your language skills. I aim to tune in to what your needs are and encourage you on your learning journey.

    Thank you for your kind feedback. I really enjoyed reading it and learned a lot. It was a bit difficult to write about my sore throat, but it might be a good practice to expose myself. I am glad to hear that your daughter became well after taking medicine. Thank you again. Have a good day!

    Thank you so much, florianna. I enjoyed reading your corrections and the comments , and learnt a lot of new words. I'm not so particular on clothing, but I would be so sad, if my favorite shops are closed during the pandemic. I have been staying in my town and never been to other cities for more than a year. How have they been changed .... Spring is coming just around the corner. We will have many good things, soon. Yoko

    Thank you for correcting my sentence. I am ashamed with Japanese politicians even they had been a president of Japan. My name "pugtsu" comes from my dog when I kept before. Their name were Puck which was Pug and the other was Tsubone which was French Bulldog. I love that kind of flat nose dogs!

    Thank you very much for your detailed corrections and opinions about the camp. I apologize for being late for months to telling you thanks. I'm so sorry. I didn't have time to study English for a while, but I resumed studying English. Thank you.

    Dear Ms florianna, Thank you very much for your really helpful feedback and answers to my questions! Thank you also for sharing many useful expressions about the pandemic, although I'm sure thinking about it is not very comfortable for you. In Japan, we are not really stricted perhaps comparing to the UK or other countries. The government hasn't applied any penalty things yet, and rather is reling on people's common sense. My parents live in the next city to ours. We used to meet every two weeks before, but we haven't for a year... (just online meeting now). I, too, hope things change for the better!

    Hello, Florianna Thank you for the corrections. You also wrote a very nice message. You introduced those new words. They are interesting, but some of them are hard to pronounce.. echelons, popularity stakes, chagrin, eminence, a level playing field, the be all and end all Anyway, you don't have to say sorry when delay happens. I believe that when spring comes, everything will go better. Stay safe and healthy. Yoko

    Dear Ms florianna, I really enjoyed reading your feedback this time and all the last year! Thank you very much!! Your suggestions and example sentences help me understand how you commonly speak. Also, your comments about recent matters made me think a lot and in fact, I realized your comments made me think things in English. Thank you very much for your wonderful answer to my additional question! It included all about the answer as well as many helpful tips. I wish all the best to you and your family for 2021!

    Hello florianna! Thanks for your considerate message. I'm sorry that UK is still under the lockdown. I can understand your feeling about visiting your sister's house. After all, we have to trust each other and keep healthy by ourselves. Also I feel that we can't live without others, friends, brothers and sisters. The virus is tough and strong but we can surely survive because we are surrounded by great music and wonderful people like you. I hope you and your family are always fine from the bottom of my heart. It has been chilly in Japan this week but your message always make me warm. Really appriciate to you. Have a wonderful weekend! Toru

    Dear Ms florianna, I am happy to hear that you are fit with some exercises and have a healthy life. In Tokyo and in Japan, there was a record number of cases today... we never quite know the direction, us either. In the meantime, thank you very much for your really thoughtful feedback as always. You gave me many ways to express things and taught me how to use "bring" and "take"! The explanations were helpful and easy to understand! Please take care, you and your family, and see you soon!
