Friends--002: Mr. Mike J -- One Of My Best England English Teachers

Mr. Mike J.is from England and he is one of my best English teachers who I have not met. He started to teach me to write from Dec.,2002, after my old brother was dead. He has corrected all of my emails and many of my articles.

Mr. Mike J. not only corrected my writing, but also he taught me where and why I had written wrong. Also, he shose and sent some articles, poems from the Internet or local newspaper to ask me to read for improving my reading ability, from classical architectures to music, from art to international events...

Right now, 2 and a half year has past, Mr. Mike J. has corrected several hundreds of my emails and articles. Every time, when people said that my English has improved so much, I would think of my first England English teacher -Mr. Mike J. and his great help´

To be honest, if there were no Mr. Mike J. there and helped me on my English writing, I would not have the courage to set up my own web site in English.

Mr. Mike J. loves astronomy and science; he makes the spirit and serious work attitude on science and astronomy to the work to help me to learn English. Many times, it is him to tell me a mark was wrong in my Chinese lesson, a tone should be corrected. It is him to remind me what I should pay more attention to when I am writing´

I do think, it is easy for a person to help the others for one day or several months free; it is not easy for a person to help the others for many years. So, I do feel that Mr. Mike J. is not only one of my best England English teachers, but also a real friend. He is the person who makes people feel safe and the one you can rely on when you are facing the difficulties.

I am really lucky to have Mike as my England English teacher and friend via the Internet. I do wish Both of Mr. Mike J. and his Wife and Children happy and healthy forever... :-)
