My English Language Learning Journey ( After correction )

Fun fact: When I was in lower primary, I had dyslexia, and this hindered my learning of the English language and made me really hate it.  However, with flash cards and hard work my parents and I finally overcame it.

Although I never had a problem with speaking in the English language, I had never truly grasped the concept of grammar; I never knew the difference between a past continuous tense and a present continuous tense, if they even existed.  In primary school we had small English handbooks that thought us about grammar, and mine was always very untouched. Even till now when writing an essay, I read the sentence in my head, and if it sounds good, I think it is correct.

While I was younger, I was always much more interested in math and science compared to the language subjects. This could have been because of the grammar exams and spelling tests. Little did I know that this tests and the handbook would affect me in the future, namely ES1102.


However, after repeatedly stating how much I disregard the English language.  I actually love reading a lot, and I remember the day Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows came out, I finished the book within the same day. Unfortunately, it has been a long time since I picked up a book to read. It have become a habit of mine to find excuses not to read anything usually I would convince myself a book is too much commitment to undertake. I hope maybe by the time the module is over, I would have started reading again and maybe finally I would be able to tell the difference between a past continuous tense and a present continuous tense. Looking forward! 

If the sentence can stand by itself, and when placed with another sentence with a “,” they would be a run on sentence.

You can connect both sentences by placing a ‘, and’, ‘;’ or a ‘.’
