Mineco-sensei and I have been reading 吾輩は猫である which is a book I have been very interested in for years now, but could never really understand by myself.
Mineco-sensei always prepares thoroughly for each lesson. She makes slides with the words, phrases and grammar for each passage. She also researches the cultural background whenever there's a difficult part or idiom in the text, as well as prepares some sentences for me to read outloud as a practice. We always have a chat about the passage and every single lesson is a lot of fun. I really appreciate all of the work Mineco-sensei puts into lesson prep.
I'm learning lots of native phrases through this lesson.
I actually came across them in many situations(TV dramas, Instagram posts, daily conversations or even she uses them without realising! ). It's a fun surprise for me!
As she said, making sentences relevant to my own story really helps them stick in
my mind.
I'm sure if I can naturally use them in my speaking, my English would sound much more natural.
Her lessons and feedback are always awesome! Thank you for always supporting me!
