Last Journal

I have been Toronto already 11 months.
I really like my new life in Toronto because I can study again in here.
Also I had a nice time in Tokyo, but I am enjoying my study again.
I think it is easier than Tokyo life. When I was in Tokyo, I had a part time job.
When I finished my class I always go to work because I have to save money for school, but now, I don’t have any job here and I don’t have enough time for work.
Today, my reading test and writing made me a little bit sad. I did study hard but I got really bad result. I have to think about it again and I have to find answer.
How can I improve my reading skill and writhing skill. I thought that I don’t have a big problem with writhing, but I know realized it was not. I have to practice it again. I know my reading skill is really bad, so I tried to read every day but still have problem with it. I know it takes time but sometimes I really rush and make me stress. I have to control this.
If I still like this, then it is going to more difficult.
Sometimes, I am emotional but it is not big problem. It is just part of life, I will forget today’s feeling and study hard again.

  1. Hi My Friend Song

    I hope that me one of the good things that you have found it in Toronto.....kkkkkk
    I think that you have had tough time during you life. You have lived in China, Korea, Japan, and then Canada. That means you have leaned many languages and cultures. That needs hard work and long patient. However, you have been strong and patient enough to get over it. Now, you are in the period of learning English. When you have tough time studing English, just remember all the experience that you ahve gotten over it successfully. That will give the strength to make you optimistic.
    Always remember, it is just a matter of time to learn English.
    Good Luck.

  2. Hi Song,

    I didn't want to write comment in the beginning, but when you mention reading and writing test results, I decided to share you.

    I didn't do well in my writing skills, I have many problem in sentence structure and grammer. I said for my friend in that day " I am really sad, and I want to cry" "-"

    I decided to start. I went to NEXUS and I searched in writing books. I spent long time until I decided what I will take. There are many books to help us in writing, but most of them focus in "how to build a paragraph and how to organize an essay'. All of that I don't have major broblem in it. Finally, I found a book help in sentence structure. I photocopy part of it, to do its exercises.

    If you need the book title I can give it to you to work together in it. Or, if you need to foucus in another part of writing, I will very happy to help you. Also, in reading, because I like it very much and I took about how to analyze an essay in reading exames. In last reading exam, I used what Lindsy taought us; read the introduction, then the first sentence from each pragraph, and after that read the whole conclusion. I did that, and after that I read each quistion with its related paragraph. I saved by this way the time, and foucus in each part, and I finished before 10 minutes which helped me to reveiw my answers.

    Nothing impossible

    we need only to know what we need, and start self-education process

    ^-^
