Brazilian? I would have though this from a native English speaker.

The second of the two videos from the previous blog post was from a writer in Brazil by the name of Carvalho, and it was the first time I'd reviewed an essay from that country.  There was a second Brazilian, also named Carvalho, in the queue of essay waiting marking, so I felt obliged to review hers too.

THe lack of grammar and vocabulary errors are similar to what one might see from an NES. However, that doesn't assure a good score on  the IELTS. See this video to hear why.

Anyways, the only problem with this essay is plain bad ideas.

Too Busy With Work Assignments, RL Teaching and your Ukulele to Speak the Word of IELTS?

At work, I've started up a company website, designed new recognition programs for our best students, overseen losts of changes and problems, but...

It's been the ukulele more than anything else that's then taking up my time. I love playing music , and I've got some new toys to help me process these weird numbers I come up with. Consequently, I haven't been doing much volunteer essay correction. It's sort of low on my list of personal priorities right now.
