That is not the worst of his writing but the cutest! He is actually very sweet and responsive. His English is always better than my Korean--which is zero! Missing articles is quite prevalent in their writing. I wonder how the guy I have now gets his brillant writing published. He must have someone help him ready his articles (No pun intended!) for publication.sporterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13277994450477293591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5468740497977721205.post-55355463971982838582007-04-19T20:08:00.000-07:002007-04-19T20:08:00.000-07:00I agree with Ellen.

Maybe you should ask for clarification in Japanese :) At the end, ream him in his evaluation of course.Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13770349712327863245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5468740497977721205.post-84714025524461233602007-04-19T14:59:00.000-07:002007-04-19T14:59:00.000-07:00Ouch.

I'm not sure this paragraph is just punishment for confusion about article use. I actually feel bad for him that he's come this far without realizing. It seems like incomplete acquisition is a common problem in Japan, but they don't seem to care. <BR/><BR/>A good way to retaliate might be to offer yourself up as a paid English tutor. :) Help future profs, since your old one might be too old to change his ways... they've worked for him so far.Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13770349712327863245noreply@blogger.com
