9:15p. m. , June16 I work 50 hours a week as a taxi driver, so I talk to people all day. They understand me, but I know I make a lot of mistakes.My vocabulary is strong. Grammar is my problem. For example, I don't use the past tense. I always say, "I drive him to the office this morning" instead of "I drove him to the office this morning". I'm trying to change, I've found some websites for learning English grammar. I hope they will be useful George |
9:20 p. m. ,June 16 I'm teaching myself English, and I'm good at grammar. However, it's really difficult for me to find chances to speak English. I live in an area where everyone speaks my language: Spanish. Can you give me some advice?Laura |
9:25 p. m. ,June 16 I understand the grammar and the reading materials in my class and my writing is good. But I'm very nervous when I speak English. I don't want to make any mistakes because people will think that I'm stupid. Also, my pronunciation isn't good. When I speak, people often say, "What? Say that again."Karen |
9:30 p. m. ,June 16 I have been in the United States for one year. I'm studying hard and I'm good at grammar, but my vocabulary is a problem. When I listen, I don't understand many of the words. When I try to read, there are always three or four new words in every sentence. I feel down.Billy |
