Happy Wednesday, my dear [이름]!
Prepositions create the biggest confusion for students for whom English is a second language. I want
you to go over the third, ninth and tenth sentences. In is used in months, years, and period of time while on is used with specific dates.
Since in the tenth sentence indicates that the doer of the action has been waiting from seven o\'clock until the present time.
As for by, this preposition is used in the tenth sentence to indicate that the doer of the action has to pass the essay on or before Friday.
If you have any questions about the sentences, feel free to ask me tomorrow.
