Hi Juri and welcome to the site.

Looks like you have a nice Chinese Elm on your hands.

Thx both of you, for the fast reply and the welcoming.

I m new to Bonsai, but i m eager to learn, and already i see a progress,

A few years ago, my daughter, then about 7 years old, told me that I was doing something very similar: I was noticing, and commenting on, how trees and shrubs around people's homes could be shaped in bonsai styles! She was right, too.

Don't feel bad; most people in the USA are monolingual, so you're ahead of most of us. I know just enough German to say, "Ich spreche ein parr Deutsch."
