Hello!

I began to study English again here, in Denmark. Today I took a free English lesson in a church. The lesson was quite easy for me however it is good opportunity to use English.I know if I don't use English every day, my English is getting worth and worth.

Also I'm thinking to take a TOEIC or TOEFL or similar English test. I feel it is better to put a goal to study. It drives me very well.

That is not cheap, it takes around $100 to register for each test. I want to utilize that! I don't want to loose money unless I don't get anything.

So that is another reason why it drives me :-)

Pretty good English! If I didn't know you weren't learning English, I would have thought you just slipped up a couple times! n_n
First correction: 'is' is for now, 'was' is for what happened
Second correction: 'put' is to place, 'set' is for having something to go/get to
Third correction: 'loose' is to set free, 'lose' is to have lost; 'if' is for consequences: 'If I don't get anything, then I lost money.'

  • It drives me very well.

  • It motivates me very well. driveでいいけど、motivateという動詞の方が適当なのではないでしょうか。

  • I want to utilize that!

  • I want to utilize that!　＝それを利用したい！と言う意味が伝えたかったのでしょうか。よくわからないんですけど。

そうですね、目標があると奨励になりますよね。僕も日本語能力試験を受けろうと思っているんですが、大変お金がかかるんです。Shoさんは聞き取り練習の機会が多いんですか。http://www.nbc.com、 http://www.fox.com、http://www.cbs.com などのサイトでアメリカの番組が見られてとても役に立つと思います。Shoさんは既に英語がお上手なのでなるべく実際の英語を読んだり聞いたりすれば、いつの間にか英語力が伸びるに違いないですね。

Thank you for correcting everyone!

>It motivates me very well
I've never used "motivates" for kind of this expression.
Thank you!
