Blog two:My reflections on paragraph writing

Today I got the feedback of my fourth paragraph, but it still remain the same condition that quite a lot mistakes were spoted by the tutor. Since I got my first D level paragraph, which depress me very much, I have been thinking about how to improve my English writing. While every time I hand in my paragraph, the tuto can always point out some mistakes. Sometimes the sentence could be grammatically correct,but the tutor said the foreigners will not speak like that, which really confused me. In my view, to overcome this ,I need to listen more ,read more and write more.because the more listening and reading I do, the more likely that I would know how to use the word correct to make it sound like more idiomatic, and the more I write ,I could spot more mistakes,then I can learn from them. Just as the old saying that we all get progressive from the mistakes. The next things I learn from my last four paragraphs is that I am lacking in the quantity ang quality of vocabulary. what is more , my previous method to memory words is useless. Although I know the meaning of the word, I do not know how to use it in the right way. As a result, the paragragh I wrote would look like I was translating my idea into English. I know that I really have a lot of things to learn, and to improve. And I will try my best to learn English well no matter how hard it is.

  2. We all lack vocabulary and can't use English in a native way. So don't worry about it. What you should do is to accumulate down to earth every day.
