Hello! My name is Minoru (You can also call me Mino).
I hadn't been studying English for six years when I started in December 2009. I want to improve my English skills more.

I was in Australia last year (2011) for 7 months, and now I'm in Toronto, Canada. I'm going to stay here for 3 months in total. Then, I'll stay in the US for 3 months more.
I had good experiences in Australia, and I want to do here as well!

Go ahead and feel free to send me messages, and be friends with me! I want to be friends with not only native speakers of Enlish but also the people of all nationalities!
And I want to be friends with Japanese as well!
日本人の方もぜひお友達になってください！

And, let's be friends on Facebook as well.

*Please send me a message too when you send me a friend request.

I'm from Osaka(next to Kyoto). After my graduation from high school, I entered Yokohama National University, but then I dropped out. I moved to Tokyo to study music at a technical college. And I graduated. Although six years have passed since I dropped out of university, I gave up my dream of becoming a professional musician in December 2009. I just started to move forward.

My TOEIC score now is 820/990 (April 2012)
