We talked about the article "Third of farmed fruit and veg deemed too ugly to sell". Unexpectedly, a lot of fruit and vegetables have been discarded which are misshapen and worng size. The reason is that customers tend not to buy irregular size or shaped produces. This trend is also seen in Japan. But, actually quite a few customers don't mind shape and size of produces if the quality is same. To select good fruits and vegs, farmers grow excess produces and spend much energy and logistics become complicated. We should accept such produces which are ugly but have standard quality.
Mark explained my unfamiliar words and phrases and suggested the essential points of the article. Especially, I like "wonky" =not straight or level, sounds cool. "go a long way to..",,,etc.
Thank you, Mark for the interesting topic as always. See you next time.

とても明快で、わかりやすい先生です。英語の面接の相談をしましたが、自らの豊富な経験を元に的確に回答してくれました。また、いろいろな例を出して、自信をつけてくれました。大感謝です。ありがとうございます。

Thank you for another great lesson, Mark.

The class for the first time in two weeks was hard for me to even book.
Because I didn't not only take the classes,but also did'nt read English textbooks,nor listening to it for over two weeks.
But I knew I did'nt have to worry at all.
The class was great. Mark relaxed me and I enjoyed the lesson.

We talked about the article "Japan debates daylight saving to avoid heat". When Mark asked me what is the main problem about adopting daylight saving, I described my opinion, which went off the point. I understood his logical explanation about the reason. I realized grabbing main theme of an article correctly is very important to discuss. Thanks, Mark. See you next lesson.

Today, I chose the article about Brexit "What does the government White Paper reveal?" Next March, formally and actually, Brexit is goint effect. But there are still a lot of problems. I don't know the detaliled situation and asked Mark them. He enthsiastically explained me the expected problems. I managed to understand the outline ot the big change of the system. Thank you, Mark for your lecture. See you soon.

Your explaneation is clear and understandable. I'm looking foward to asking from now on. See you soon!!

Today we discussed the article "The UK's four Brexit options". With the UK on course to leave EU on next March, there are still optional courses for UK's future.
From the article, I found there are so many problems for both of UK and EU in process of the Brexit and I wonder UK should have chosen staying in EU. Mark explained to me the examples of potential problems after Brexit. I still have many questions, so asked him to treat this article in next lesson again.
Thank you, Mark and looking forward to talking about it.

Mark gave me a great lesson as always. Thank you!

Thank you for the lesson today!
I could learn many words from the conversation with you.
I will have some topics that I want to talk with you next time again.
I appreciate your support and look forward to talking with you!!
When I come back from my home town, I will book your lesson.

Sorry for my very late review. Although it was a while ago, I remembered the lesson very well. The topic Mark chose was very interesting as usual and Iearned a lot.

Continued from the previous lesson, today Mark checked the latter part of my speech script and corrected it into better one. His advice made sense to sophisticate the script and I could realize some words and phrases I memorized wrongly and correct them. Thank you very much, Mark for helpful advice. See you next lesson.

Today, I aked Mark to check my speech script and corrected it into natural expressions. As always, his suggestion are very helpful and he gave me different expressions such as "lightbulb moment""detective""organized""stubborn""enforce". Thank you for the valuable advice and see you soon.

Thank you for the lesson, Mark.
I felt that it was difficult for me to tell him what I want to say this time.
but, He was paicient to listen to me and said again what he's said.
Thank you Mark! have a great weekend and see you again soon!

Thank you very much for helping me with my work.

This is the second lesson.

Today's article was "Mapping the global heatwave". I learned how many countries have experienced record hot tempreture by global warming, at the same time, a few spots have become cooler than before unexpectedly. Although we need to make much effort to sotp emitting CO2, some economical power doesn't admitt that global warming has caused the climate change because they don't want to restrict economic activities.
That's a big problem, I think.
Mark always choose me variety of articles I'm interested in and I have fun with discussion with hime. See you next time, Mark.

It was fun to have a chat with you as usual. See you soon!!

In our lesson I first talked to him about my trip in Edinburgh. I told him some unexpected experiences. Then I had him correct my English. I really enjoyed talking with him this time, too.

I enjoyed today's lesson,it was fantastic.
Thank you so much, Teacher Mark!
