so to answer this question:
Mina San wa ashita wa benkyoo o shimasu ka


Id say:hai.watashi wa ashita wa benkyoo o shimasu

is this right?

 

[Glenn]

Hmm, I'd say switch watashi wa and ashita wa around, but yeah, that's right. Of course, you could just say watashi wa benkyoo shimasu.

Normally in natural speech you wouldn't use "wa" after ashita in a sentence like this. I think it is grammatically correct in this case, although not always -- so as Glenn suggested, leave it at (Watashitachi wa (plural if you're talking about "mina san" ?) benkyou shimasu.

Sensei used Mina san(everyone) because the question is posted in audio format on a website for the students to losten tooo and answer.Would that affect what you said?

Mina San wa ashita wa benkyoo o shimasu ka


Id say:hai.watashi wa ashita wa benkyoo o shimasu

is this right?

"Mina san wa ashita wa..." and "Watashi wa ashita wa..." are both correct. They imply studying tomorrow and "not today or (maybe) the day after tomorrow" depending on context.

It means you need a tomodachi to benkyou with. Very helpful for those times one misses notes or skips class.
