    Today, after discussing my experience taking the EIKEN exam, I proceeded with the lesson "Definitely Master It! 100 Chinese Sentences." I came to understand that even a single sentence has so many different usages.

    Today we mainly talked about my school. We had a lot of great conversations about things like the number of subjects at my school and what happens after final exams before summer break. It was really helpful to be able to compare my school with schools in China, and it motivated me to keep studying.

    After the lesson, I learned a wonderful Chinese phrase: "Even your dreams will come true." I really felt that with such a strong conviction, anything is possible.

    It's always a free talk lesson, but the tutor provides timely topical material that keeps me engaged without falling into a rut. They're kind and use plenty of Japanese, so when I don't understand something, they kindly explain it to me in Japanese.

    Actually, it's quite difficult for me to explain the difference between 親子弟 and 孝行弟 to others! Because generally, Chinese people don't really recognize the distinctions in the meaning of 弟 the way we do.

    Today I learned HSK 4 Lesson 1, textbook 5. I was taught about the grammar structure of "因为...做" (because...do). Since the subject comes before "因为," the latter part of the sentence has no subject. I made mistakes several times at this point, but the teacher patiently explained it to me.
