Grammar, Usage / "Korean: teaching, learning" - some questions for a video [2]

I am trying to make a video and these are my lines:

-------
oh hi!
have you ever thought about learning Korean?
yes? that's good!
no? well, that's okay. After watching this video, you might like Korean!

before I begin teaching you about Korean,
let me briefly introduce myself to you.
My name is Jay, and I've been living in the United States for 5years now.
I was born in 1992, so I'm 18 now.
And I am a senior in high school.
As you can see, I am just a normal average boy.
Also, my English skill is not perfect,
so you would hear me speaking English slowly and sometimes wrong.
please bear with that.
okay, I think this is enough information for you to know about me.

Now, let me tell you the reason why I am making this video.
well I thought to myself how I can contribute to the world,
and then realized that I know how to speak Korean!
So, I decided to teach people Korean language.
And then I thought to myself,
"well, What's the most effective way that people can learn Korean? how can I teach them?"
then here was my answer.
"Make a video and upload it on YouTube!"
Yes, it's just simple like that.
And I think it's easier to learn Korean by watching the videos rather than reading those difficult Korean learning books.
So, why am I making this video? well, I just felt like it!

Now, I will tell you how I will teach you Korean.
This is not from any Korean textbook; it's just from my HEAD.
So I might say something incorrectly.
Please be generous and understandable for this young child.

alright, now you will think to yourself,
"why is this guy in weird custom?"
the reason that I am wearing this is because of my theory:
"the sillier I look, the more affective that I can get people's attentions."

Do you know about Kahn? a guy who teaches lots of subjects by making videos?
well, this is the same idea, except this is a mini version of his work.
Okay, I think I introduced everything about my video.
By the way, this is a not-for-profit video.
(whispering) but if you would like to donate, please visit this website:
A-M-E-R-I-C-A-N-R-E-D-C-R-O-S-S.org
Now, let's get down to business!

Undergraduate / "cannot wait to dive in any research project" - Duke Supplements WHY duke? [3]

Hi, thank you for clicking this thread.
I'm applying to Duke very soon (actually right after this revision)

English is not my first language, so there might be some issues.
Thank you for your time!

P1. please discuss why you consider Duke a good match for you. Is there something in particular at Duke that attracts you? Please limit your response to one or two paragraphs.

Relaxed on a rocking chair, I was enjoying my holiday with my family in the living room. As my left hand stroked my belly that was full of Thanksgiving's dinner food, my right hand fumbled around unorganized table to find a remote controller. When I turned on the TV, there was a show called CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 show, introducing about animal intelligence. While watching, I was very impressed by Dr. Sue Savage-Rumbaugh's lifelong research on ape languages, and surprisingly, I could also navigate other great researchers from Duke University like her: Dr. Brannon and Dr. Hare. According to CNN, they have been studying animals' behaviors for decades, and that speeded up my heart. Hoping to attend Duke and do research in biology, I found the real reason why I truly want to go to Duke.

...

P2. If you have participated in any significant research activity outside of school, please provide a brief description and limit your response to one or two paragraphs.

During my summer break after the junior year, I was able to participate in Michigan State University's Plant Biology research. My research topic was about the effect of plant growth regulators on peroxisome morphology in srabidopsis. Peroxisome proliferators represent a good model system to study the mechanisms of non-genotoxic that cause carcinoma or tumor of the liver in animals or humans. The experiment was developed to see significance in shape of peroxisomes in many different kinds of hormones.
