I corrected many Japanese journals.
I am neither a professional teacher nor an especially intelligent person.
I just really like studying with people who are learning Japanese. :)
Also, I rewrote my past journals.
I really appreciate that so many people help me learn!
Thank you so much!

Today was a really good day!

Good night!

9th, January 9th

I have corrected many Japanese journals.

I am neither a professional teacher nor an especially intelligent person.

without especially/particularly/etc is totally fine too, i just think it helps to clarify that you’re not saying that you’re not intelligent at all, but that you’re just normal :)

I just really like studying with people learning Japanese.

:)A I also I rewrote my past journals.

the other way around is fine too, but if the sentence is going to be short, I think this sounds better.

I really appreciate that so many people have helped me learn!

Thank you for the correction!
Your explanations made sense to me.
I’m really happy to have such wonderful teachers here!😆💐

I hope everyone has a wonderful day ;)A, and I hope tomorrow will be a lovely day as well. :)¶
Good night!

As Bees mentioned, you shouldn't start a sentence with "and". However, you can combine sentences with "and" in order to get the same meaning.

But, I'd say that the way you wrote it is okay in this case because you weren't really starting another sentence, you were just splitting your sentence with ":)". However, you should remember that in proper English, you shouldn't start a sentence with "and".

"who are learning Japanese" is more natural in this case.

"so many people help me learn" is more natural in this case because the speaker is talking about a general fact that people *help* them and they are happy about that.

You shouldn't start sentences with "and," and the "and" is made redundant by "as well" at the end of the sentence anyway.

To Bees,
Thank you so much for the correction!
Oops, we Japanese really often start sentences with “And” or “But”.
I’ll be careful more!
