My English language learning journey
I've been learning English since I was in
primary school. At the beginning, we just learnt some basic knowledge: vocabulary,
grammar, listening and speaking. We had more chances to practice reading and
writing skills afterwards. In high school, English teachers always taught what
we could learn on our own, and we were required to take notes. However, English
classes in Singapore are quite different from those in China. I could still
remember how terrible I felt after I finished my first comprehension paper,
because I was used to multiple choices while the questions required us to
answer using my own words. We also learnt a lot about writing different types
of essays, thinking critically, reading longer articles and writing summaries
and reflections. Since English is quite important, I hope I could improve my English
through ES1102.
