Submission 1 : English Language Learning

In a world of globalised trade, English is used predominantly in many countries as a form of communication. As an undergraduate waiting to enter the workforce, English in written or oral form is a necessity because most of the information found on the Internet or books are in English which is crucial for my learning experience as student in university.

From young, I was speaking English almost every second of my life as I grew up environment where my family and I spoke English to each other. I clearly remembered where I had to speak to my new found friends in kindergarten, I was very comfortable in speaking English with them and when it comes to practicing English writing on my workbook, I was very happy because it doesn't seem very difficult for me.

As years passed by, I started learning more complex English words through books, music and newspapers. I felt the strong language fundamentals that I have learnt throughout as a young boy helped me understand the language better as it allowed me to use different adjectives in my writing and improved my sentence structure and grammar language. Some examples of writing English language in my life include composition writing, summary writing and class presentation in my secondary school and polytechnic days.

Nowadays as I recalled my past experiences, I felt a sense of accomplishment from building my basic language fundamentals to using more complex words in my education. I know that English will continue to be my form of confident communication to my peers and a medium to help me excel in my studies. As for my future career, I believe that skills and knowledge the language has taught me will greatly improve and expand my job prospects.

  1. I feel Aaron did a good job in paragraphing the phases of him and English in his life. Overall the post was good, however i feel if he put more details of how he learnt English,example any particular song actually taught him something.In addition, i think he could probably say about some of his difficulty or interesting experiences. If these were mentioned, i think it would be more enjoyable.

  2. Aaron's reflection gave a very good overall summary of his English learning journey. The introduction is good and it gives readers an idea of what he's going to discuss in the upcoming paragraphs.

    I feel that he chose good examples to portray his point as most of us are able to relate to them. However, I think that it would be better if he shares some of his difficulties faced and how he eventually overcame them.

    Deep thoughts on his reflection can be seen as he even foresee how English language will impact him in the future. Thanks Aaron for writing such an interesting write up and I had a good time reading it.

  3. Hi Aaron,

    I feel great for you in showing much confidence in your English Language. I admire how you can manage English in term of verbal or written easily. I believe you have put in extra effort in your early school life to learn the language well.

    On the other side, I am different and my score in English in my primary and secondary school is always a marginally passed. I hope to learn from you and improve my English constantly.
    I would like to know have you ever face any diffculty throughout your English learning journey, perhap you may want to share if any.
