understand me? What are the differences between British English and American English? How important are
these differences?
Certainly, there are some differences between British and American English. There are a few differences
in grammar. For example, speakers of British English say "Have you got a pen?" Americans say "Do you have
a pen?" Pronunciation is sometimes different. American usually say "class" instead of [ kla:s] as most British
do. Some speakers of British English do not pronounce in some words such as in the "bird" and "work" while
Americans usually do. There are differences between British English and American English in spelling and
vocabulary. For example, "colour" and "vapour" are British, "color" and "vapor" are American, however.
For the most part, British and American English are the same language.

My English teacher is very strict with us. Several days ago, when we were in class, Tom asked me a question. But my English teacher thought we were speaking in class. She asked us to stand at the back of the classroom for a few minutes. This made me unfair. After that, I feel nervous in her class, so I don’t like her class. However, I really want to learn English well. What should I do?
Yours,
Mike
Dear Mike,
I am sorry you are having difficulty with your English class. Every teacher wants his or her students to study hard. So I think you should have a talk with your English teacher and tell her what you were doing with Tom that day. If she knows your worries, maybe she will help you with your English. And she will be pleased to hear you want to learn English well. Of course, you should know that what your teacher did was good for you. When you are not trying as hard as you can, she has to stop it and try to help you. Wish you have a better life!
Yours,
Editor
