You already know that the main reason why I blog is to enhance my English communication skills because there’s no other way that I know to enhance it but in writing alone. It’s true that I finished my college with high grades in English, but I am actually really bad in speaking and writing in English.
I once applied as College Teacher in one of the universities in Quezon City, but I was not accepted, and learned that evaluators gave me a grade with a big remark: “Poor English Communication and with Provincial Accent”. That was the most embarassing experience that I have. But it encouraged me to find ways to enhance my communication skills (in English).
And so I started blogging (year 2003). I tried to write my thoughts and let the world read those things I wrote. I might not noticed my mistakes but at least some readers told me about it. I remember that few of the visitors commented on my grammar in my posts, “Boyzone Member A Gay” and “Pacquiao vs Larios Boxing Bout“. I am actually hoping that someone can comment on this blog again like that because I know criticizing me will lead me to learn something.
And now that I’m already on my one year blogging on this blog, I think, I get some improvements….
And yes, there’s a great improvement on my writing style, spelling and grammar compared to my old posts. I can actually write a post in just 15 minutes without writing it first in a blank paper as draft. But of course it’s not yet the end. There might be a little success in that but I still need to enhance it more and more. Maybe until everybody will recognize me as one of the great bloggers around the world. Who knows?
So much for that, I found this post, “5 Common Mistakes That Make You Look Dumb”. I learn something from it.
