I hate my sentence style, and I am bat at English grammar. So I feel like I am going to be frustrated when I read another essays. Also I bed that my essays/dairy are so boring to read. Why do I think so? Because when I read it, it is not fun, and kind of as same sentence as usual all the time, I mean my grammar, phrase or so. So I’m practicing how to write something in English recently, like free writing whatever I want, read a reference book, etc. Also I started that to study TOEIC (to increase vocabulary too). However it is very hard for me, but I think that the first thing I need is a lot of vocabulary, so I’m still trying. One day, I asked a man a year ago that I can’t write what I want to in English very well so what should I do? He answered that anyway keep its going. it would be good for sure. Then now, time passed from then. So I really worried about my English skills, also it has not improved recently, I guess. I am sure that connect is important, but I don’t have confidence at my English. What do you think about that? Please tell me your suggestion.

Hi, how have you been these days? I've been busy but I'm doing well, but I feel like I am going to sad because of me. I made sure that the most important thing is keep to practice!!! Have you ever taught Japanese for someone? Of course I have. So, let me talk about my experiences this time. I promised a man who is a exchange student of KGU the other day, so we gather to teach Japanese at the library after school. He asked me about “ばかり”, and “つい” today. I know how different between “ばかり” and “つい”, but I didn’t explain it very well. What so frustrated!
However, I did do my best, I guess. Here is what I taught him.
About “ばかり”; it has 2 mean. The one is like 1) “Some 10 people happened to be there,” the others are 2) “She reads only magazines,” “He is always borrowing other friend’s books.” something like that. Or you will be able to teach like “I’ve just finished my home work.
About “つい”; it 4 means. It means like 1) “The friend’s name slipped my mind,” the others are 2) “I ended up overeating,” 3) “I missed my chance to confess because I was afraid of being to she gets mad,” 4) “It was reported on radio only a few minutes ago.”
Well, I don’t know how much he could understand. But I hope he gets better than before I taught at least a little.
I really like to speak English, also want to help someone if its need for them. However I did not explain so well, also I was not satisfied today. I didn’t feel good, but there was nothing I couldn’t do. I still have time, so need to study how to teach Japanese. Also I have a duty which I should more to know it why I am native. We have some exchange students from some countries here in KGU, so we each have chance to teach Japanese them. So there is a lot of good opportunity for us. Why don’t you teach Japanese them with me? I’d like to try it even I’m not good at to teach Japanese yet.
