Today in my Korean class, I made many mistakes while speaking and answering questions. My teacher pointed them out and gave me some advice on how to improve.I felt really frustrated and disappointed with myself because I knew I could have done better.That’s why I’ve decided to study harder and review everything I didn’t understand.There will be a test next week, so I want to prepare well and do my best to get a good score.I don’t want to make the same mistakes again.

Good morning. Today, I'm going to write about my favorite place. My favorite place is Todaiji Temple. Do you know it? Because my grand parents live in Nara, so I have been to Todaiji for more than 10 times. Todaiji's attractive is the beauty of its history and architecture. It is built in Nara period to protect country. When I actually visited, I found the wooden architecture to be very old and fascinating. There are also many deer in Nara Park, which makes the place very relaxing. If you’ve never been there, I highly recommend visiting.

It was more humid than usual today, and I sweated a lot. There’s a bus that runs from my house to the station, but I usually walk to save money. Lately, though, it’s been so hot that it’s getting really tough. I’m starting to think it might be okay to take the bus once every three days. I really wish it would get cooler soon!

In Japan, religion is not based on one god or one clear teaching. Instead, it is more flexible, with many layers. Buddhism and Shinto exist side by side. People also believe in nature spirits and respect their ancestors. Because of this, even if someone doesn’t say, “I am Buddhist,” they still do religious things in daily life.

I had a sleepover with my friends over the weekend. It had been about a month since we last saw each other, so I’d been really looking forward to it and it turned out to be so much fun! We had a takoyaki party at my friend’s house for dinner. Even the preparation was a blast, and time just flew by. The takoyaki we made together tasted even better than usual! Since one of my friends has a birthday coming up, we also had cake and gave them a present. They looked really happy, and that made me happy too. After dinner, we stayed up late chatting about our high school memories and watching movies. We ended up going to bed super late. The next day, we woke up around noon and went to karaoke. It was so much fun and we all got super into it I didn’t want to go home. We made plans to meet again next month, and I’m already looking forward to it. Even though I was really tired afterward, I laughed so much and had the absolute best time. It was an amazing two days.

English students: Can you relate to this? You want to sound more clear and understandable to a native English speaker. Not just have people understand a few of your words then assume what you're actually saying. But to have your listeners completely understand you instantly without having to make any assumptions or use 'context' clues. Maybe you've never had someone from the United States judge your speaking before. Maybe you've only had friends and family judge your speaking and they haven't offered much in regards to what you should improve on. If you've never had someone from the US judge your speaking and you want to sound more American then let me know. I have pronunciation classes, conversation classes and more available!

I’m going to go shopping in Shimokita with my friend. I’m very exciting!! Today is very hot, so I think that many people want to be in home. But I want to go out because I feel lost all day and I think a lot of thing at my home. I plan to do a lot of walking so I'll sleep well.

Hello everyone. This weekend, I’m going to DisneySea with my friends from junior high school. I’m really looking forward to go DisneySea because it has been a long time since I last saw them!!! We often went to Disneyland when we were junior high school and high school students, so I want to go Disneysea for a long time. I have always preferred DisneySea to Disneyland because it has a calmer and good atmosphere. The design of the park is beautiful, and it feels like traveling to foreign countries such as Italy or Arabia and so on because building are very real. Also, many of the rides in DisneySea are faster and more exciting than the one s a in Disneyland. My favorite attraction is Tower of Terror because it’s both scary and fun. I’m planning to take a lot of photos, eat delicious food, and buy some souvenirs. I’m sure it will be an unforgettable day with my friends. Have a great weekend!!

I talked with foreign people in Kamakura. They are working at the same workplace as my aunt. They talked to me in English. However, I was not able to have a good conversation because I was nervous. I thought I would like to be able to talk to foreigners without hesitation. I want to go abroad.
