Hello Adam san, Thank you for taking a class with me. We learned "mashoo" and "masenka" when you invite some one to something to do together. Let's learn it more next time. Have a wonderful rest of the day! Ayako
You did well on the vocabulary questions! I think you remembered most of them correctly, but let's review them again.
There were some questions in the listening section that were easy to get wrong. I think you'll understand them after hearing the explanation later, so remember these patterns and try not to make any mistakes on the actual test;)

You worked hard on your homework practicing the て-form! Good job!
While we're studying this in the textbook, the て-form has several meanings, and since the meanings are different between L5 and L6, which we're currently studying, make sure you remember not only the changes in form but also the meanings!
こんばんわ! Thank you for joining the lesson as always. It was great seeing you! In today’s lesson, we began studying how to use "つもりです" and "ない つもりです" in Chapter 11. This structure uses the verb's dictionary form for the affirmative and the nai-form for the negative. For example: • Affirmative: いくつもりです。 (I plan to go) • Negative: いかないつもりです。 (I don't plan to go)
As you mentioned earlier, when we compare"いくつもりです” with "行くよていです." the expression "行くよていです”has a stronger, more definite feeling. It also sounds more formal and is often used in business situations. “行かないつもり” is very close to saying that you definitely won’t go. It has a clearly negative and firm nuance. English expresses this idea in a similar way.
Next time, we will practice making simple sentences using the phrases "するつもりです" and "しないつもりです" with various verbs and in different situations.
おつかれさまでした。Thank you for your hard work! Have a great week!
