English Grammar: Tenses

Here is Episode 2 of my podcast "Art of Asking Questions." The topic is the simple yet powerful question: "What's Important to You?" Hopefully it can inspire you to try and make deeper, more genuine connections with those around you.

Lately, many people around me are catching colds, so I’m trying to be vevy careful. I don’t want to get sick, especially now when I have a lot to do. To keep my immune system vevy strong, I’ve started eating yogurt every day. My favorite yogurt'flavor are strawberry and bulueberry!! I’m not sure if it’s scientifically perfect, but it makes me feel like I’m doing something good for my body. Also, I really believe in the saying “Illness begins with the mind.”in Japanese Yamai ha Ki kara. It’s kind of like my personal motto. When I think positively and take care of myself mentally, I feel that my body responds better too. So even if I’m worried about getting sick, I try not to stress too much and instead focus on healthy habits and a positive mindset. Another small but happy thing happened recently!!I did a little gift exchange and received a new item. It’s simple, but it made my day good. I love that kind of small interaction where something ordinary becomes meaningful. Every time I wear it, it reminds me that even small connections or acts of kindness can brighten daily life. Overall, I’m trying to take care of my health and appreciate the little things around me. Everyone, please take care of your health.

Interest may be on a whim, but it is difficult to stick to it. Therefore, we need like-minded partners to go hand in hand.

Me as a Teacher I can help with pronunciation, phrasal verbs, prepositions, basic vocabulary and basic general conversational skills about general topics. I only tutor students that are 16 years old or older. Students must be able to comprehend basic questions without much difficulty to take this class. If you frequently struggle to understand basic spoken American English questions/instructions then I won't be able to tutor you. I only tutor students that are A2 level or higher.

I know the purpose that many people go to the gym is not only for exercising, but mainly also for showing their figure. Maybe this gym culture is very different from other countries'. So, for the people who really want to keep fit, maybe a quiet place in a park with some willow trees is perfect for working out. Your body is moving as wind blows through the willow trees leaves. You are actually one part of the nature. When you jog along a river with the purl sound created by water, you definitely feel peaceful. You really want to run and run until you are exhausted. So, nature is the best gym for everyone. Try our best to keep a great relationship with the nature. Exercising the the best bridge between you and the nature. Let the nature witness your changes. We always hear others say that the prefect sunhsine and the prefect breeze is there, what are you waiting for?

Today was busy, but it turned out to be a fulfilling day. I woke up a little later than usual and had to rush through my morning routine. It was extremely cold, and walking outside from the morning was tough, but the weather was clear, so I still felt in a good mood. In my first-period class, we learned about cruise ships. I was glad to hear stories that I normally don’t get the chance to hear. In my second-period French class, I was happy because lately I’ve been able to answer the teacher’s questions correctly more often on my own. During lunch break, I talked with a friend I hadn’t seen in a while. Even though we go to the same university, it feels lonely that we hardly meet when we don’t have any classes together. After school, I didn’t have a shift, but I went to my workplace to see my friends from my part-time job. I really love spending time with them because talking with them helps me forget stressful things and just enjoy the moment. It seems like I’ll be entering a busy season soon, but we were able to make plans for a drinking get-together, so I’m looking forward to that. For dinner, I ate udon that my brother brought back from Kagawa as a souvenir. Since it was such a cold day, the warm udon really warmed both my body and my heart. I’m going to sleep early tonight and get ready for tomorrow.
