It's a strange time, but I have a part-time job after school today, and I don't think I'll have time to upload to italki, so I'm writing my diary now. School ends at 4th period, and if I go home I won't make it to my part-time job on time, so I plan to rush there by train. For now, I think I'll just go to bed early.

Today is my friend’s birthday. She turned 20, so I gave her a present. For lunch today, I ate leftover bibimbap from last night’s dinner.

Hello. Today is very hot day. After school I going to go to part time job.

I'm tired of thinking about what to have for dinner.

I can be early back home today, because my English class was cancell.

In each episode, I show you how to give clear, well-developed answers without overcomplicating things. We look at ideas, structure, and natural language you can actually use in the test. I’m a former IELTS examiner with over 20 years of teaching experience, and the aim is simple: help you feel more confident and give better answers.

I woke up at 10 as usual and went to school, where I had my Russian class. My next class was canceled, so I went back home and relaxed for the rest of the day.

Another week has begun. I feel blue.

I did speaking test of French class. It was so difficult. I forgot test when I arrived university, so I was really panicked. However, I managed to do it.
