Hello, everyone. Nice to meet you. I'm Mari. I have been learning and teaching English for 30 years, and from my experience I found out one simple truth. All you have to do is just keep learning every day. If you give up, what you have built up will be gone and you will be back to the beginning. I have never lived abroad, I couldn't speak a word in my 20's, but now I enjoy talking with many friends in the various countries on Skype everyday mostly in English, sometimes in Japanese, French, German and Chinese. I love learning languages. Yet unfortunately these languages except English , I'm still like a newbie because I gave them up before. And don't be afraid of making mistakes. Even native speakers make mistakes. So take it easy and let's learn together! 皆さん、初めまして!過去30年間英語を学び教えてきました。その経験からわかったのは、実に単純な事実、毎日学び続けること!途中で諦めると学んだことは忘れて、初心者に逆戻りです。私は海外で生活したこともなく、20代では英語などまるで話せませんでしたが、今では毎日スカイプで海外の多くの友人たちと楽しくお話ししています。主に英語で話しますが、日仏独中の言語も飛び交います。残念なのは仏独中の学習は途中挫折を繰り返したので今だに初心者レベル。継続は力です!
