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, as always. In Japan, there is a custom of putting yuzu in the bath to purify the body on Winter Solstice Day. You can enjoy the scent of yuzu while taking a bath. I'm going to do it this year.

ありがとうございます！その場合、「幅広い英語表現をしたい」という意図を反映しつつ、より適切な表現に調整します。修正版 “I want to write widely English explanations” “I hope to write a wide range of English expressions on each topic.” 修正の理由 1. “a wide range of” • 「幅広い」という表現として、a wide range of が一般的で自然です。ここでの「英語表現」というニュアンスを具体的に伝えます。 2. “English explanations” “English expressions” • 原文の “explanations”（説明）は、「表現」を意味する場合には適切ではありません。expressions（表現）に変更しました。 3. “on each topic” • この部分は文法的に問題ありませんが、意味を正確に伝えるためにそのまま維持しました。修正版全体 Dear Florianna, Hi, nice to meet you, and thank you for your insightful comments this time. I’m also glad that you showed me some paraphrases. I hope to write a wide range of English expressions on each topic. See you again, Caz1986

Dear florianna, how are you? You wrote me about the choice of words I didn't know. The sentence below is beautiful. In the sentence you introduced a good wording, "has long assist" and "since the olden days" describes shorter time period than I wanted to say. Thank you. "The brain has long assisted human beings with their development." Also, I understand the small difference between the definition of words," find", "reveal", thank you. It's a beautiful season here in Japan. I'm gonna visit a park in Tokyo, today. There are two flower gardens that my favorite gardeners made. It's gonna be a lot of fun. Take care and see you next time. Yoko
