I made a short speech about cyberbullying. Thanks to Xandra's comment, I understood what I should change it. I want to do better next time!

Thank you for the lesson today.

You taught me some slang which people are using in chat or email.
When you said 'TTYL' or 'BRB', I felt like a kind of quiz.
Also in Japan, a lot of new words are born frequently but honestly I can't catch up with it!
Sometimes my father tells me the new word which is popular among young people.
Like your father taught you 'groupie'!!

After your class, I remembered the values of my company.
I almost forgot them but it was very important for me when I decided to work for.
I'll return to my job next month so I'd like to confirm my company's mission or value and recapture the feelings I had when I was a new employee!

Thank you for the lesson today.

We talked about our weekends. You taught me you watched 3 movies.
I like the series of "The Lord of the Rings" but I haven't seen movies of Hobbit.
I'm going to watch them so that I can discuss about it with you.

We also talked about dogs.
Having dogs is very taugh and there is a lot of doing to keep it.
When I began to have my first dog I became nervous too.
But dog is smart animal so I think there is no concern to worry so much.
Dog always watches you and learns automatically.
Honestly this "automatically" is sometimes annoying...lol.
Anyway, I'm looking forward that your dog will be coming in your home!!

Thank you for the lesson today.
I was glad to hear that you decided to welcome a new family 'dog'!!
I think I can be your tutor of dog training. ^-^

Today we talked about the employment contract.
I admired a working style of American's which is so smart to manage their time.
Nowadays some Japanese companies start to implement a 'No overtime work day' once a week. Yes, once a week...lol
But it has been not worked well yet. Especially my company!
This is one of my missions as consultant to solve such issue.

Thank you for the lesson today.

I will try not to become so nervous about the usage of words in casual/formal situation.
I could understand the more important things are tone of voice or attitude.

The exercise, which is warning for delinquent employee, was very interesting for me.
I did it in very typical way of Japanese.
So I could know the difference in the way of angry/warning between Japan and US.
It was also interesting!

At first, we introduce ourselves each other. After that, we read an article about life. She asked many questions to let me understand the contents. In addition, she told me some useful advice to improve my English in my daily life.

Thank you for the lesson.

I learned a new expression "Let's play it by ear!".
This phrase became my favorite.
I'll say it to "Tokyo" people.
I'll try to use expressions that I learned in the lesson.
Have a nice weekend!
I'm looking forward to talking with you soon!

I enjoyed the lesson with Ms. Xandra very much. She gave me some appropriate advice to make my presentation more impressive. She also encouraged me a lot while I got a bit nervous about speaking English.

Thank you for the lesson.

I could clearly understand the meaning of "tap into".
It was very interesting to know its historical background.

I also enjoyed to talk about a generation gaps.
In Japan, there is similar expression as "millennial generation".
We call it "Yutori generation" and my boss always complains their attitude.
It is interesting this kind of story is talked everywhere.

Thank you for the great lesson! We enjoyed the lesson. A lot of practice makes the student's English better. See you next time!

Thank you for the lesson.

Today we talked about salary according to a material.
We discussed about gender equiality in salary and hiring.
After the class, I read some survey result issued by Japanese government. You were right! I found some issues still remained in Japanese companies. I'm lucky that I haven't recieved any unfair treatment with gender in my career.
I must solve these issues as my job!
... but there is complex matters like culture or history something like that.
I want to discuss again with you if I get a chance.

Thank you for the great lesson as always!

Thank you for the lesson.

At the beginning of the class, we talked about my dogs.
I explained my experience of training of dogs.
My vocabulary is not nearly enough!!!
But I like to talk with you.
It is my motivation.
Thank you always!!

Thank you for the lesson!

I checked my audio settings again.
No more problem!

We talked about some Japanese actors in Hollywood.
It was so fun.
I have to learn English for bussiness but I think it will be better to talk freely with you occasionally.

Thank you for the lesson.
*I am sorry for the late comment.

We talked about my current job.
It was very good practice for me.
I have many oppotunities to describe my job.
I'm going to brush up the description for my future clients.

Thank you for the lesson.
I enjoyed it as always.

When we talked about the expression of "work one's way up to", I felt the language is living.
We can understand a meaning of words from dictionaries but sometimes it has changed a little according to our life-style.

Your lesson always telling me these changes. If I studied alone I could not know them. I want to learn a lot from you.

Thank you for the lesson.

I always enjoyed your interesting story.
Today I could know some English homonyms and common mistakes among native speakers.

Whenever I talk with you, I really think that I learn not only English but also the culture!

Thank you for the lesson.

Today we talked about qualifications/certifications.
I could know there are a lot of interesting certifications!
After the class, I remembered there are some interesting licences in scuba diving (i.g. sea slug speciality licence).

I always thank you to give me nice example sentences to understand the words.

Thank you for the great lesson!

Although today's topic was challenging for me, I managed to make a speech. I want to speak out my opinion in confidence whatever topic is given. Thank you for your advice, Xandra. I'm looking forward to having fun conversation with you again!
