  1. Yes, you spelled seldom correctly.
    I also prefer not to make mistakes, but unfortunately, small mistakes are very easy to make, and usually they are not a big problem. In our more academic writing tasks, being correct does matter, as it does in exams like TOEFL and IELTS, but as in both of those, you can also make minor mistakes and still get a 100% score: they are, after all, testing your ability to communicate effectively in English, not the perfection of your typing. You'll notice small (usually) mistakes in my typing. These sometimes annoy me when I look back at what I've published, but if they aren't serious, I don't worry about them.

    I hope you liked my Classroom question about our favourite songs. I think most people like music. I don't play an instrument these days, although I used to play the flute when I was in school. I wish I'd kept up with it, but I didn't. Now, I just enjoy listening. Most of what I listen to these days are the things that were popular when I was in high school and university. I have heard of Justin Bieber, but I couldn't name a single one of his songs. On the other hand, I have a fair knowledge of the work of David Bowie, and of course Queen, the group who gave us Bohemian Rhapsody, but these are not exactly the latest in music.

  2. For me I find playing an instrument is difficult,maybe it because I am not interested but when I saw someone play an instrument and it turns out good I always like it.
    I have tried to learn how to play an electronic keyboard when I was 13 but I could not even learn the basic.

  3. I really like some of classical music such as Mozart songs and Beethoven songs. This song due to the research is a good tool to develop our brain.
    Piano is one of my interesting musical instrument. I hope one day I can play it well.

  4. My only favorite classical artist is Sebastian Bach. His baroque music reminds me of flower gardens and the fantasy adventure stories from Nintendo games I played when I was young. Some of you might know the series of Final Fantasy.

    Jazz is enjoyable for me. I think jazz is a good ingredient to many kind of music like soul, folk and blue. I listen to various kind of music with a hint of jazz.

    Piano is a good instrument for music learning. Good that you do. I used to played Thai flute when I took Thai music class in high school. I played Lao Duang Duen and got full marks in the exam. That's all I can remember. Now I can't even get a tone right. What a shame!

  5. I kind of get amazed by people able to read the music sheet and able to remember the chord and play the instrument fluently. I found myself getting lost on where I was at and which part I took off so I gave up on music quite early.

    I am wondering do you also listen to other music aside from classical music?

  6. Cool! Ben
    When I was studying in primary school, I used to play Thai instrument call Zo-Ou and Ra-Nat. I had tried almost every Thai instrument because I was the head of Thai instrument club. Now, my all of knowledge is gone.

  7. I used to play piano when I was young but I didn’t enjoy that much because my mom had me took a class. I played for 3-4 years without good attention and practices so I really can’t play it well. But when I grew up as adult , I really enjoyed playing piano because a lot of my favourite movies like La la land and Begin again have beautiful piano song so, I started to practice and play it again. However, I can’t play it as good as my friends who have practiced and played for long time. I feel pity!! I should not stop playing!!
