Could someone please correct these paragraphs for me? I believe that having the opportunity to study abroad and getting in touch to a whole new culture would help me to share my own expericences with others trough my art productions, not only by personal projects like a book I'm working on, but also trying to inspire and teaching others the importance of valuing diferentes world views. For me, sharing experiences and knowledge are the main points to get to a better way of living. Currently studying Visual Arts at college. It deals with artistic production and research in fields of visual languages, including painting, drawing, engraving, sculpture, design, photography, video and more, also studying contemporany art and exploring creativity skills as well. Thanks in advance!

What's the difference between these sentences? What's the difference between "I have lived here for 22 years" and "I have been living here for 22 years"? Do both sentences mean the same thing? I know the first one is written using the Present Perfect and the second one, the Present Perfect Continuous, but I don't know when I should use one or another.

I am applying for a scholarship and I need some help to fill the application form Hi, I'm Amanda and I'm applying for a scholarship to study Arts in Japan. I have to fill the application form either in English or in Japanese, and I'd really apreciate if someone could correct what I wrote for me. Basically, I need to explain the reasons why I chose the subjects and the trigger for having an interest to study in Japan. For now, here they are: First choice (Manga and Illustration): I chose to apply for Manga and Illustration as my first option because it was due to my drawing skills, since as a child, that I came to study Visual Arts at college lately. This kind of art has always been part of me and having the opportunity to study abroad and learn a new way of art production would certainly enrich me not only as a person, but also as a professional. Second choice (Film and Video): The second option is something more recent, but that has already had a big influence on me. I started making some videos to post on the internet about drawings and tutorials, trying to help and incentivate more people to get into art. Later at college, I had classes about film and video, so having the opportunity to study more about it would help me grow as a video producer and get me to be able to share even better contents about art. Trigger for having interest in Japan: Taking as well all the reasons I wrote above about the subjects chosen, my interest about Japan and its arts, culture and values has started years ago, when I first met its mangas and animes. Since then, I've been searching for more information about this country such as its lifestyle, culinary and language, which I started taking classes on July, 2018. Because of it, I got to know about the MEXT Scholarship and then I saw the opportunity of trying to go on an exchange and live a life experience I've never had before. That's what I have for now, thanks in advance for anyone who helps me!

Should I say the biggest collection IN the world or the biggest collection OF the world?

Do you like going on walks "in" the park or "at" the park? I still confuse when I need to use "in" and "at" in some situations like this (sometimes "on" too). I've already heard people saying both ways, but I couldn't figure out the difference. Could you help me please?

Art college I've always wanted to study arts at college and now I'll be graduating by the end of this year! I'm really happy about it because the last 4 years have been extremely interestings and I've grown so much as an artist. I learned new techiniques, how to use new materials and many different types of art, like calcography, wich I liked very much! I also found myself on digital photography and on audiovisual productions. Another thing that I liked about the course was that I could get in touch with many other artists and live togheter with them almost everyday. I also had the oportunity to participate on the college's dance groupe and we did a presentation last november. That experience was amazing and I'll definetely take it with me for the rest of my life. The only thing I think it was boring during these 4 years was that I had to go to another city to study by bus every night. It was really tiring, but worth it.

Could you please list here a phrasal verb that you use a lot or think that's important and its meaning? I would like to learn new ones in order to improve my vocabulary :)

About my dog I used to have a dog when I was a kid. It was a male german shepherd called Kupper. It was very big and beautiful and it used to love playing with balls and water. I remember it would also get into our house when no one was watching and lay on the sofa. My mother used to get mad at it because of that, but we always ended up laughing of the situation. Kupper was really cute and we loved it so much! Quick question: could I use "he" to talk about my dog in this case?
