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.

    Dear Ms.Florianna! Thank you for correcting my sentences. I think how to use perfect tense is difficult for me, such as "I want to know exactly how much money I've spent". It is also difficult how to use a verb "get" , for example, "And, if I read it I sometimes get lucky!" "I sometimes get lucky!" is a simple sentence but it's more difficult than it is expected. Thanks anyway and I have to keep writing to improve my English, Ms.Florianna. Have a nice weekend, Ms.Florianna.

    If my father was alive, he would be 93 years old. Someone with my late my father's name was very rare in this age because his name is an old kind of name. Thank you for your comment on my essay.

    Florianna-sensei, Thank you very much for your corrections and detailed comments. Many alternatives you advised are much useful for me. I use this site only for upgrading my English, so it was not inconvenient. Yes, we are busy during Christmas. I had to play a role of Santa Claus. My elder daughter in her 13 yeas old pretends to believe in his actuality. For clarification, the only one violin school which supported Suzuki method was in my native town. The piano school with blah-blah-blah method or without any method was managed by a moody man with naturally curly hair. I disliked him. In list of books you kindly presented, I found ’The Hare with the Amber Eyes’ is the story using Japanese Netsuke as an icon! That's seems interesting. I have already ordered it on Amazon(It can't be helped to use Amazon). Though it would take a long long time for me to finish it, I will send feedback to you. Best, AK

    Hi florianna, Thank you for your corrections. You are right. If there were someone in the rich countries to donate money for financial aids and if such people do not recognize that how important it is not to through away food a lot, I hesitate to say, but seemingly they behave hypocritically. Before that, I need to reevaluate myself again... Thank you . Tommy,

    Thank you very much for your kind comment on the logic used for stating my idea. I must study more to compose more natural sentences through everyday efforts to try IDIY assignments.
