How to reply

I can't always make up my minds how to appreciate someone's comments.
(Would "I don't know what to describe in response to..." be better?)
I don't have enough vocabulary to express thanks. I would glad if you let me know good phrases.
I also had a trouble with how to reply when I got online English lessons.
How can I say in response to "Do you have any questions?"
When I replied "Nothing" or "No problem", teachers often looked waiting my words.


誰かのコメントに対して、どう返したらいいのかいつも分からない。
感謝に用いる語彙が不足している。もし、何かいいフレーズを知っていたら教えてほしい。
オンライン英会話を受講していたときにも、同じような問題が生じていた。
「何か質問」ありますかとの質問に何と返すのが正しいんだろう。
「何も」とか「問題ありません」と返すと、決まって先生は何か私の言葉を待つような顔をするのだ。

How to reply

I can't always make up my minds how to appreciate someonSometimes, I don't know what to answer to people's comments.

This is closer to what you meant. "appreciate" would mean you don't know how to interpret what someone has said (as a compliment, as a neutral sentence, as a blame etc)

I would glad if you could let me know some good phrases.

I also had a tsimilar prouble with how to reply when I gotm after taking online English lessons.

"trouble" is uncountable, but "problem" is not

HowWhat can I say in responseanswer to "Do you have any questions?"

When I replied "Nothing" or "No problem", teachers often looked waiting my wordat me as if they were expecting further answers.

Feedback

"Do you have any questions?" is a yes no question, meaning you have to reply with "yes/no". "Nothing" is clumsy because it generally answers "what/which?"
Some alternatives if you want to elaborate:
- No, it's fine!
- No, I think I'm gonna be alright/I think I'll be fine, thanks for asking!
- No, everything's understood! (not very idiomatic, but you can say it)
- No questions for now, thanks for asking!
- Everything's clear! (you don't really answer the question here, but "everything's clear" means you don't have any questions)
- Your explanations were crystal clear, so I don't have any questions! (same as before, if you wanna flatter the teacher :p)

Thank you for leaving a comment in detail! These phrases must be helpful.

How to reply

I can't always make up my minds on how to appreciate someonpeople's comments.

"someone's" sounds like you mean a *specific person* e.g. your mum. "people's comments" sounds like it is *multiple people's* comments you are dealing with

(Would "I don't know what to describesay in response to..." be better? )

with "say", maybe. Both work

I don't have enough vocabulary to express thanksgratitude.

"I'm very grateful" is a very polite way to say thank you :)
It is too formal to say to your friends, however

I would be glad if you would let me know some good phrases.

need "be" to be there as a verb in this conditional statement. "glad" is an adjective, and you/he/she have to "be" it:
I *am* happy -- I would *be* happy

The sky *is* grey -- if there were no clouds, it would be blue

I also had a trouble with how to reply when I got online English lessons.

good sentence

HowWhat can I say in response to "Do you have any questions?

"How can I respond to..." works too.

Ask them questions! They're there to help you learn english and there are no stupid questions

When I replied "Nothing" or "No problem", teachers often looked, waiting my wordsfor me to say something.

"Nothing" and "No problem" are maybe a bit blunt? You could say "No questions, you have explained it well. Thank you" if you fully understand. This is also formal enough to say to a teacher

Feedback

I'm sure they will be happy to help you if you ask more questions. It's good to be an inquisitive student, and you are clearly learning a lot already, well done!

I learned a lot from your corrections, and I will keep learning something new unless no one read my posts:)

How to reply

I can't always make up my minds on how to appreciate someone's comments.

I would personally phrase this: "I can't always make up my mind on how to show thanks (/ gratitude/appreciation) for someone's comments."

(Would "I don't know what to describe in response to..." be better? )

I don't have enough vocabulary to express thanks.

I would be glad if you let me knowshared some good phrases with me.

I also had a trouble with how to reply when I gottook online English lessons.

HowWhat can I say in response to "Do you have any questions?

"

When I replied "Nothing" or "No problem", teachers often looked at me, waiting myfor more words.

I tried to modify the sentence to convey the meaning more directly but I might have missed what you were trying to say.

Feedback

I completely understand how you feel! I feel the same way sometimes. I'm also afraid of making mistakes when I thank people for their corrections.

I would recommend:
Thank you for your corrections!
Thank you for correcting me!
Thank you for your feedback!
Thank you for taking the time to read my entry!
Thank you for sharing those extra resources with me! (If they attached a link or sent a file)

To any of these, you can add:
Your feedback was very helpful.
I learned a lot!
I learned something new!
I didn't know about X before you pointed it out to me.

If someone asks "Do you have any questions?", you could respond with:
Nope, I'm good!
No, I think we covered all of my questions already!

or

Yes, could we go back to X please?
Yes, could you help me understand X please?
Yes, I was wondering if there is a more natural way to phrase X.
