Hi Vex! Welcome to Maggie Sensei’s site!
Thank you for your nice message. I am VERY happy to hear you like my lessons.
There are many lessons here so please come visit us again.
またね〜！！
I was just wondering Yukari-sensei, if you have anything on OR could possibly explain (thoroughly? :D) the difference between やる and する, because I’ve heard them being used almost interchangeably…
ありがとうね^o^

Hello Daisy! We don’t have the lesson on the difference between やる and する yet. Sure! We will put it on the list. But there are still over 40 lessons to release so please wait, OK? (Or we might post the lesson on Facebook. Do you follow us on Facebook?)
