The First Message

Dear Mitsu,

Thank you for your first message. Please go to this web page to learn about me:

Each week I will correct your English. I write corrections under your sentences.

Each week at the end of the message I will give you the web address for the new lesson.

The new lesson for this week is my introduction page, above.

I do my part of your class like an American teacher. I expect you to tell me

if you do not understand something. You may ask me questions about anything.

 I look forward to your messages!

Sincerely,

Prof Sue Stiner

What did you think of Memphis? Did you hear country music there?

How long did you stay with the host family?

Many parts of this country are quite different from each other.

Delaware is different from any of the places you saw.

I'm glad. When will you come to America again?

My pleasure! I hope you enjoy the experience.

What else do you do for fun, Mitsu, besides play piano and travel?
