VIP Class Notes (Nate)

Why did you choose to come to Shanghai ? I think Shanghai is very convenient city, you can buy everything on apps and you can hang out at every time, 4am and 5am. You can get food at any time.

I like to ski. I must go to other countries its not a convenient but in 2022, Shanghai will build a huge ski place for the Olympics. I like riding horses, its very fun but a little dangerous, I like to travel too, I’ve been to Spain and Japan. I like Japan because when I was a child, I watched the Japanese Anime and video games so I like Japanese culture. I feel Japanese culture, I like ancient architecture, I think (the) Japanese accent is nice and beautiful. They are very courteous, I have been there four times to different cities.

I really like ancient Greece, I like ancient philosophy, like Plato.

I like Hawaii, I like beautiful sea and beaches. Hawaii has a special courtesy  (culture) a little different between different parts of American and its more Safe.  What’s the difference between American food and food in France. I like French food more, French food is art and delicious I think French food is more delicious than food in the west.

American food is easier to eat like fast-food.

I started learning English from primary school, Chinese and English but most of the people, couldn’t speak English good (well) I’m not hardworking on study (studying), I like relaxing. I like to play the video games and watching Anime. I don’t like to study and go over  (go over material for a long) for a long time. I couldn’t focus for a long time so my test results were just ok.
