留学日記トップ ｜

I came to my high school (Tilton high school) on 9/2. I want to put my pictures, but I can not connect my camera. I can not use my laptop and Japanese. I have to say sorry about this late work and my terrible English.

My school has 5 Japanese students. I realized how my English is terrible when I came here, because many international students speak English very well. First I disappointed about my English. Really, I can not understand what native speaker saying, but I can understand international students' English. They speak more slowly and clearly than native speaker. Now I have two good friends, one is from Korea and the other from German. We can talk every thing even my terrible English... Next I will write about my class. See you!!

About My Classes

I'm taking five classes now. ESL Writing, ESL Literature, ESL History, Algebra and Science. ESL is not so hard, I can understand almost everything. Algebla is very very easy. It is difficult to understand the meaning of questions, but it can't be a big problem. Almost every question is very simple, like "solve for x, -5x+2=5x-2". I got the highest score in class today!! I was poor at math in Japan, but in America I am genius!!

I think I'm doing good job except Science... It's terrible. Yesterday, I have a homework which is to read paper about artificial insemination and write reaction report. It has almost 10 pages, it took whole day to read. It gaves me HELL. I couldn't go out from my room even though it was Sunday!! Science homework always takes a lot of time and I hate it. It is the hardest part in my life.
