Thank you very much for attending today’s lesson. We learned about Pokémon types and discussed how some of them have different meanings in Japanese and English, which was quite interesting. We have now officially started the Advanced-level lessons. Let us move forward steadily, one step at a time.
Konbanwa! Thank you for joining today's lesson. We focused on conversation and practiced using from the Intermediate the useful expressions 2 textbook. You were also able to use adjectives appropriately,such as "たのしいです," "こわくないです," and "こわくなかったです", You also shared about the smartphone you just changed last week. I'm truly impressed that you can read katakana — that's one of your strengths. Excellent work! おつかれさまでした。それじゃまたあした!
Today, you did a lot of practice exercises using the te-form. You did a great job. Good job!
It was difficult, especially since there were so many patterns in which verbs in one group change, but you were able to do it by checking them one by one.
Let's continue practicing next time so that you can use it more naturally;)
