Hello, Ko! Thank you very much for writing this thoughtful message. I truly enjoyed reading it. What stood out to me most was your mindset. You chose to approach English seriously, even knowing it would not be easy. That kind of decision shows that you are a sensible and thoughtful person, and it is the foundation of real progress. Reaching Stage 6 in six months through steady effort is something you should be proud of. When grammar begins to feel natural, and sentences come out more easily, it shows that the language is becoming part of you. That is meaningful growth. I also appreciate your good sense of humor. Even when the process feels challenging, you keep a light and positive attitude, which makes learning easier and more enjoyable. Thank you for your kind words about my teaching. I am happy to guide you, but your consistency and effort are what truly make the difference. I am also grateful to Teacher Gracey for helping you build a strong foundation. I do not know exactly where you will be in another year, but I am confident you will continue to grow. I look forward to supporting you as you move forward. Thank you for your trust. Blessings! ~ Maria
