I was born in Malaysia and since young my parents have been speaking to me in either Mandarin or Hokkien. Thus, I am used to communicate in my most comfortable language -Chinese. In primary school, my English was just barely over the passing line and I was often laughed at by my friends. I find it hard to pronounce certain word and my paper are always full of red markings on my grammatical errors and fragmentation of sentences. I know the importance of writing and speaking well in English as I would need to do presentations and write essays. I think it is really time for me to put in effort in improving my English. However, it takes time and effort to do so. I am now trying to pick up the habit on reading news online and I hope it helps. Most importantly, I will keep an open mind in learning and try to reap as much as I can in this module (:
