Kaoru has studied English for nearly a
year now. She couldn`t speak, write
sentences or understand what I was
said to her when she first walked into
our Heart to Heart doorway in Imaike
at Curious Court!
She has worked hard in her 90 minute
classes which she takes every 2nd week
and has accomplished so much in such
a short time!
She has achieved quick response reactions
in English conversation, is cheeky, asks
me questions eagerly,makes jokes readily,
comprehends grammar accordingly and has
just started writing stories. Kaoru is also
our youngest student at Heart to Heart
being of 26 years of age. Yey! Yey!Kaoru!
Her usage with new vocabulary has improved
tremendously and I am just so happy to see
her well-earned progress.
*
Well Done Kaoru and keep on keeping on!!

The Crossroads

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — clarissa 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 9:53 pm on Monday, April 26, 2010

When you come to the crossroads  in making decisions and don`t

know which way to turn. Go inside to your heart because the

answers always lay there. Go with your instinct because it is always

right . Don`t be greedy and make the wrong turn. If you do, you

may be richer but your heart will have burns.

What do you think?

twitter

twitter seems to be the rage worldwide at the moment.
You may ask yourself; what is twitter?
*
I understand it to be a way of connecting people from
all over the world through this internet tool called
twitter.
*
It is used for business marketing and advertising,
making new friends, finding out what`s going on in
your local area as well as globally; making those
connections with people who have the same interests
as you, bringing lonely hearts together and much
much more!
*
I use it as a window to open my door to the world of
people who utilise twitter for integration and to
develop my knowledge from others and hopefully
share my heart with people who wish to know me.
*
If you would like to make contact with me online..
My twitter address is:

Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

Sachiko`s Story

Sachiko Ueno

This is one of my students at Heart to Heart and her
wonderful story of  courage, hope and love. Her task
in English was to write a story with the 10 vocabulary
that are highlighted in red.
*
nb(abbreviation taken from nota bene in latin; which
means  `note well`.
*
I have made grammar corrections etc. with her
privately but have posted her original copy because
she did such great work and it is very easy to feel
and understand her words…
*
Sachiko`s Story
Recently, I often think about my life.
Everyone is troubled about something and stumbles
in the life. It`s very important for me to get married
because I want to establish my family and give birth
to my children. It may be that I can`t get married
because of my brother. People say that my brother is
a disabled person. Actually, he can`t understand
complicated things. But it`s not because of  him or
someone. He has sincerity, so he never tell a lie.
He works intently, so his co-workers depend on
him. He is pure so I like seeing a pleased expression
of him. I Like him very much and he is isn`t bad at all.
But I don`t escape from the harsh realities of what
people think of him and I want to be a courageous
sister for him.
I like Tokyo Disneyland because there is a lot of
fantasy and happiness. Both staff and visitors are
smiling. I want such a situation in our daily life. I
want everyone  to not have  mandatory
thoughtfulness but a natural one.I get over my
difficulties and I will be happy and I want to convey
a lot of happiness to many people.
I have some presentation to help the disabled people.
I `ll try my best to understand everything.
*
Sachiko, Thank you for giving me permission to
post this on the Heart to Heart blog. You are a great
inspiration for people who cannot see the bright
side in life. Your brother seems to be living his life
in honesty and love.
I hope that more people can learn to open
their hearts and live like you and your brother!
May everything that comes to you in life be of valuable
experience for living in happiness the natural way!

Believe in Your Actions

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — clarissa 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 2:33 pm on Tuesday, April 13, 2010

Yesterday, I had a discussion with a loved one about what I`m doing

in my life. I said that I believed that what I am doing now, is the right

thing. I also said that I felt negative transmission from my friend when

I was talking about several issues and wouldn`t surrender my beliefs

to my friend`s fear.

It is always wonderful to have experiences like I did yesterday because

it confirms that I can humbly say I am living in the truth as I believe

it to be; for me .

It also shows me that if other people don`t have faith in me, it`s okay

because I know that I`m not living to get something out of someone.

I`m living my life in trying to truly contribute to someone, in some way.

Don`t  support anything that you don`t  fully believe in because you

will always feel a pitiful emptiness associated to that; with precious

time lost.

If you choose to do something , do it with all the WILL that you have

and you will see that the results will be equally fulfilling or

If you are happy doing everything half way through; be assured that

everything will take the same amount of effort in the results that

will undo.

名古屋にニホンカモシカが生息?　

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 8:27 am on Monday, April 12, 2010

驚きの話ですが、名古屋市守山区でニホンカモシカが発見されました!

名古屋にニホンカモシカがいた事も不思議ですが、
これまで発見されてなかった事も不思議です。

定点カメラには、ニホンカモシカの親子が写っていたそうです。

Great Advertisement!

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — clarissa 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 8:28 pm on Sunday, April 11, 2010

I loved this commercial! We should try and see the positive in each

neagative situation. Once you get into the habit of it you will realise

how much fun it is to live in a different frame of mind instead of

wanting to dramatize everything into a negative situation in order

to seek peoples` sympathies and exhaust one`s abilities into complaining

about everything around you.

Start living positively and you will discover a new world!

Mixed Fruit Cake

My mother made this awesome cake
which had so many different fruits and
totally delectable sensational tastes!
*
Whilst savouring her original creation,
I got to thinking that if we look at all
the ingredients, time spent and energy
she used to express her love to us, I
identified that her cake could represent
the many experiences that we have in
life and if we are satiable at the end of
living in a day; we must be doing the
right things to feel happiness that only
we alone can array.
*
Life can be` a piece of cake`, if we put our
energy into the destined directions in our
actions that we take; in order to realize the
sweet essence awaiting us in each and
every wake.
