To learn language is very important things for our life. If we can not understand languages in the same countries, we can not contact each other. Then we cannot do anything. For example, we cannot speak, understand each other’s hart, or communication between other persons and I. It is not only in the same countries, but also overseas. So we learn languages.
I have learning a few languages since I was born. I receive a lot of language’s classes until now. For example, I received Japanese, English and German. I’m learning them still. Then I deepen that knowledge now. In the future, I want to talk a lot of people through English. I will introduce about their content from now on.
First of all, I want to talk a lot of people in the all over the world. English is a common language all over the world. So I want to speak English very well. I want to get a lot of skills in writing, speaking, reading, and listening. So, I want to start to remember words, read newspapers, and watch TVs. I think these are easy ways to learn English. Then I want to get those skills through them. In the future, I want to be a ground staff at air port, cabin attendant or English teacher. I have learned English over ten years, so I want to work use English. Therefore I have a few plans to study English. One of them is to go abroad. We can study English not only study abroad but also trip. I want to go America one more time. I went to there last summer vacation with my friends, and we experienced a lot of things. At there we had some troubles because we couldn’t get through our pronunciation. I felt that it is one of important thing for me to understand and speak English. I started to learn language deliberately at six years of age in the elementary school’s class.
However, it is not first time for us to learn languages, because we can speak mother tongue at the age. Actually, we learn languages before we are born. Mothers talk to them babies to them stomachs. I think that the baby listen that the voice inside. Then the young children hear the conversation of them around adults. When children go to pre-school, they remember a lot of words. It is not only good words but also bad words, such as fool and shit.
At elementary school, I studied Japanese and English. In Japanese, I learned, the Japanese cursive syllabary, block letters in Japanese syllabary and Chinese character. First we learned the Japanese cursive syllabary, and second block letters in Japanese syllabary. After that we learned Chinese character accordingly of age. Flower is the first Chinese character, which I remembered. It is about five years old. My brother taught me the Chinese character. It was difficult for me to remember the Chinese character. When we remember the Chinese character, we have to remember order writing. To keep order writing is most important things to write beautiful Chinese character. Then I learned English from an Assistant Language Teacher. We learn English through some games, and sings. It was very interesting for me to learn English. Other things I commute English conversation class after school once a week. In the class, I learned a lot of words. For example, I learned some words, month, and week etcetera.
When I was a secondary school, I started studying English in earnest. However grammar was the main thing I studied. We learned these to use textbooks. Sometimes, we learn English through some games. I learned these in a high school too. As a freshman, I started to learn English deepen, not only grammar, but also English history.
I learned a second foreign language, German. The reason I choose it was, I heard that German resemble English and Japanese. Actually, German resembles Japanese grammar and English words. But, German is foreign languages for me. However it is interesting for me to study German. If I have chance to learn German again, I want to learn once more time. I have learned Japanese, English and German. . Then if I have a chance and time, I want to learn Korean. Korea is near Japan, so I felt Korea is the nearest country in the all over the world. If I know Korean, I can go there any time. So I want to learn Korean except Japanese, English and German.
I’m learning English profound knowledge now. For example, I learn history of the English language, U.S. literature, writing, speaking, and reading skills etcetera. Until I was a high school, I had never learned exact pronunciation. However, at the university, we can learn it by talk native speakers. We can learn that not only talk, but also hear. Then I discovered a lot of things. For example, I found national expression by everyday conversation. I felt that it is important for us to learn practical English. I can do it now
Thus, I have learned three languages through life and classes. I like Japanese best. But, English is most used by a lot of people all over the word. I felt that it is not easy for us to learn languages, so I think that it is important for us to learn languages step by step. Then it is important for us to continue learn languages by usually life. I want to learn languages now, which I can and I hope I can speak English well in the future. (929 words)

Essay 1-03a: Treasure
We watched the movie which title is Lilo and Stitch. I thought that this movie has various hearts. I think that heart is very important for us to live. When I watched the movie, I learned a few things. One is about guardianship. And, other is about traditional culture. This movie thought me having heart is important.
People have a lot of heart in own mind. For example, people have a family love, brotherly, friendly and so on. Then the movie has a guardianship. The purposes of the guardianships are saving family and Lilo’s future in this movie. Lilo’s sister, Nani, had to find a job to save family. I think that working is very important for us to live. If we don’t have work, we couldn’t get money, and we couldn’t live. So Nani have to get work to Lilo’s future.
Actually, I saw the woman who can't live with her daughter in the TV. She has to spend massive life with her husband. She was remarriage with her new husband, so her daughter didn't know new husband. Then the daughter lived in the institution. She was very sad to live not with her daughter. She wants to live with her daughter. I think that a lot of people who can't live with them children want to live together. However, condition is very severe.
Next is traditional culture. We have many cultures in our life. For example, we have foods cultures, clothes culture and house culture and so on. It is different each country in the earth. When I watched the movie, I learned Hawaii's traditional culture. Hawaii's cultures are dancing fula, Hawaiian music, Hawaiian juice and so on. These cultures are interested for me.
But, I have a pride of Japanese culture. I think that Japanese cultures are peculiar. For example, Japanese culture has Bon odori, Ennka,, and sushi and so on. These take root in our life. If we went to go abroad, we can experience about different culture. To experience different culture is important for us. We can know wide world.
This movie taught me a lot of things. These are important things to live. I think that this movie can understand even child, so this movie taught them about hearts. And, to know different culture is to learn own culture. We have to treasure them. (390 words)

Introduction myself revision
Hello. How do you do? I introduce myself from now on. First, my name is Yumi. My first name was made by my father when I was born. My first name is Yumi written by kanji 祐美. My name’s origin that 祐 is help to people and so on, and 美 is beautiful. My birthday is in January, and I’m nineteen years old.
I’m from Gyokuto in Kumamoto. My hometown Gyokuto is a historical place.
My family members are my father, my mother and my brother. My father’s job is a policeman, and my mother’s job is to cook lunch for elderly people at an institution. My brother is one year older than me, and he is a student at Sojo University. He is majoring in architecture.
My favorite foods are cream puff and fried chicken. When my mother asks me “what do you want to eat for today’s dinner?” I always answers “fried chicken”. I like fried chicken all the more. I can’t eat eel, because I hate that it looks like snakes. Then I don’t like the dog days when we have to eat eels.
My hobby is to watch movies, to go shopping and to make cakes. I often do such things in my holiday. My specialty is to play the flute. A peg to play the flute is that I was member of the brass band club when I was in junior high school. My parents bought me a new flute when I was thirteen years old, because I was using the school’s old flute at the beginning. So the flute is my treasure. I don’t belong to such a club now, but I sometimes play the flute during the holidays.
I’m working part-time as a clerk in a supermarket and laundry. The office is near my house, it is so convenient for me. Besides, I will start part-time job as Teaching Assistant at Kumamoto Gakuen University next month. The part-time job is advantageous for me. First, I can spend time usefully. Second, I can learn how to teach students. I am in the teaching course, so it is useful for me. Third, I can get paid. Just kill three bird with one stone. I want to work at an airport or hotel in the future, so I am interested in the tourist industry. I’m interested in overseas since my childhood, and I want to come in contact with a lot of foreigner, so I want to work overseas.
Finally, I have a few questions for you. What do you do in holidays? Then, do you have any rules in your family? I want to know these things to stay with you. I’m looking forward to meet you.
