My husband is leaving for Thailand tomorrow morning to make a presentation in an international meeting. Although I didn't have confidence to understand his economic presentation, I offered him to listen to his rehearsal. I was really surprised that he made a 18-minute presentation without a note! I couldn't the details, but barely understood the substance. He asked me to comment on it. Although I couldn't criticize the content, I suggested to him that he should practice a little bit more, especialy key phrases, as he sometimes flatered and he acceped it. I hope he will make it on next Tuesday.

After getting a job, he studied English in earnest. He always listened to English by a "walkman" and dictated cassettes every night, so I knew how hard mastering English was. Actually, when I had the first baby, he took a TOEFL test!

At that time, I didn't think I would try to learn English like him. Now, he is the best person who understands why I'm absorbed in it so much and always surpports me. So, I'm glad that I helped his preparation for the presentation.
