Dear Johan,
Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging feedback on my writing! I’m really happy and motivated after reading your message.
All the progress I have made is totally thanks to your professional and patient teaching. You explain knowledge clearly and guide me to use English naturally, which helps me improve so much step by step. I really appreciate your careful and dedicated guidance in every lesson.
I will keep practicing the verb "to be" and past tense as you told me, and I’ll keep trying my best to write more vivid stories in English.
Thank you again for your great teaching!
Best regards,
Oliver

Thanks to this lesson, I now know how to be creative and disciplined, whether surfing in the ocean at 10 p.m. is dangerous, and what asado meats are. Muchas gracias, my friend.
