I have had a dream to improve my writing skills to the level where i
don't have to get embarrassed over stupid mistakes in my e-mails and
short compositions. I have a very tight work schedule and i can't
afford to quit the job and peruse my dream which is becoming more like
a need now. I have come across various suggestions to build up the
habit of writing every day as that ensures betterment in writing with
the passage of time. But, every time, after putting all the ideas into
practice a day or two , i ended up putting an end to all the passion
and obsession of improving writing skills. I humbly request all of you
to give me a few practical and innovative advices to help me fulfill
my need.

Writing well even in one's native language requires dedication or
talent, or both. It also requires a broad and profound understanding
of grammar and idiom, and therefore many, maybe most, native English
speakers I've seen write like retards. So don't beat yourself up. I
have encountered a problem similar to yours in French--I can read it
just fine, but I write it very poorly. Long ago, when I had just
finished four years of high school French, I could write it OK, but
it's faded away.
I would suggest that when you get frustrated, just read English--
forget about writing for a while and read, read, read. That's how I
learned to write English, and I was born and raised in New Jersey.
Read modern novels that interest you. The quality of the English in
them will be good enough, as a rule. Subscribe to an English-language
newspaper. Steep yourself in English.
Agree with Splay. Don't be upset. Keep inputing(reading) and
outputing(writing).
One day you will find yourself improved so much.
Hello! Maybe I can give you a advice, just transcribe some English
ariticle you I like.I enjoy using this way to improve my English,It
makes a great effort for me.I hope you'd love it!
Thanks,
Kash
You are right, we live in same world and have to work for our needs. I feel
same as you do, we cannot improve english skill only by reading a book and
we don;t get that much time and efforts to invest on it.
We have to write some good thing everyday and make corrections all the times
it will help us in make us bold in communicating in english.
Lets start something with different topic everyday and we all will discuss
on it. We all will review grammer as well as betterment of letter.
I feel lets start with "Essay of English and Grammer", it will be our essay
as well as grammer correction oppurtunity.
or let me know which subject you like to discuss...
thanks

I think learning English together with several people is a good idea
to improve English skills. I have tried to write one essay one day for
preparing IELTS exam, but it didn't work very well, it's hard to find
the errors in my own writings. So if people would learn together,
exchange experience and find out each other's disadvantages in
English, it would be very nice.
I have upload a file which is come from BBC Learning English Website,
called "Learning Circle". There are some ideas which I think we can
adopt for learning together for improving not only English Writing
skills but other skills, such as Speaking and Listening.
So let's have a discussion about these ideas.

Thanks for make a force and army of learning english, We all are becoming
solders of this english learning army.
I saw website, it has many thing learn its like a big sea. Belive in you to
learn and explore more areas of english as well as improve knowledge. But i
feel knowledge is a big sea and it has many things to learn and give.
Unfortunarly we require to take baby steps to learn english like divide
english in small parts and learn each part one by one but our goal will be
same as yours of learning everything.
Friends, Here is BBC website
http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/ its really good
website. thanks to katat.
Erros in in your last email
1: So if people would learn together,
exchange experience and find out each other's disadvantages in
English, it would be very nice.
Error: Their is 2 commas in a sentense, its suppose to be one comma only or
you require to use conjunctions like "and, but, or, nor, for, yet, so"
2: I have upload a file which is come from BBC Learning English Website,
Error : you require to use "uploaded"
Thanks

Thanks for your correction.
Do you want to join me to make a plan for setting up a English
learning group?
I think learning English should not just be for one section of the
language, practicing all the aspect of language is a good way to boost
the language learning efficiency. So if we could set up a group for
learning English, the learning focus of this group should be making
four section of language(Listening, Reading, Speaking and Writing) to
process together, which can make learning language be more
interesting.
I want to know more ideas for our learning plans, So please tell me if
anybody would be interested in such group, and then we can discuss how
it will be.
Best Regards,
Katat
