Diary - Today, I took an English-speaking lesson online.

This is an entry from my diary. Please check it and correct any mistakes.

Today, I took an English-speaking lesson online. My teacher was surprised that I told her that the quality of Hong Kong public universities is better than private universities. I don't know why. Maybe it's because public universities have a longer history and better resources. Yesterday, I took a Japanese lesson. It's really hard to memorise Japanese characters. Actually, they are simple but very similar. I believe after I overcome the characters, everything will become a lot more easier.

Today, I took an English-speaking lesson had an online spoken English lesson. My teacher was surprised that when I told her that the quality of Hong Kong public universities is better than private universities. I don't know why. Maybe it's because public universities have a longer history and better resources.

Yesterday, I took had a Japanese lesson. It's really hard to memorise Japanese characters. Actually, They are actually quite simple but the problem is that they look very similar. I believe after I overcome my problem/issue with the characters, everything will become a lot more easier.

See above. I changed "took" to "had" because there is some ambiguity with "take a class". It can refer to both the student and the teacher. We've discussed this on the forum a few times. Using "have" removes the ambiguity.

Actually, they are simple but very similar.

I can't see anything wrong with that sentence. Consider saying "simple to write".
I also think "English speaking lesson" is okay (without the hyphen).
