Studying
the English language is never easy for me, especially in writing. Even though I
major in Chinese Studies in NUS, and it seems like the usage of English is not
required. However, the other modules that I am taking are taught in English and
thus it is expected of me to be eloquent in the language. Honestly speaking,
not many people take note of grammar in their daily conversations. For many, as
long as what they said can be understood by others, they are perfectly fine
with it. Nonetheless, this perception
does not apply in writing. Through ES1102, I had done many grammar
exercises and it really helps me to learn more about the various grammatical
rules and techniques that I can use in my writing.
ES1102 provides students with a platform
to study grammar by various means. Instead of getting answers from the tutor,
we are given the chance to spot grammar mistakes in our exercises and this
really helps me learn must faster and remember better. With the practices in
class and the online quizzes, I am slowly being able to spot grammatical errors
in my friends' work and to me that is
definitely a sign of improvement.
If I
am able to spot others mistakes, the next step for me will be to start
correcting myself in my own writing. I need to read more books and newspapers
which will help me improve my language skills so that I can be more fluent in
the language. I will also need to apply what I learnt by doing more writing
exercises and also discipline myself to speak proper English in my daily
conversations.
