Dear Mr. Mason.

Thank you very much for your kind instruction and detailed explanation.
I'm Jenny from Korea, and I've been taking your lessons for about two months.
Since I'm a staff member in an office, working for 10 hours from noon to ten,
there is little time to watch the video lesson and do my homework.
That's why I can't help handing in my files around 3 a.m.
But your translation (plus interpretation) skills inspire me to study harder.

By the way, I was a little embarrassed when I got 4.6 score on module 3 quiz.
Your comment was as follows:

1. As the first African-American president to lead the United States of America, Barack Obama often fought conventional wisdom.

미국에 사는 (Wrong/awkward interpretation -0.20)

What does it mean to lead someone/something?

When I heard this sentence, I repeated this sentence again and again
And I couldn't understand what she said.
'Why on earth does she tell me the country Obama is living in...?'

Reading your comment, it turns out that I heard "lead" as "live."
I'm little upset about my lower grade than usual, but I think it'll be a bored joke for Christmas.

Wish you merry Christmas.


Sincerely, Jenny.
