Hi Fiona716,

You mentioned that you have studied English for a while and you don't feel confident about your grammar. One of the reasons people find grammar difficult is because they look at it as something complex.  Having a positive attitude for learning will make a lot of difference.  When you are trying to learn grammar, try to associate the rules with your everyday life. When trying to understand the rules of grammar, always ask yourself which occasions or situations you can apply those sentences that has this rule.  Do not be contented with just "memorizing" them.  This will also makes things interesting.

Grammar is something that helps people understand each other.  It's a kind of rule that makes you certain that if you follow it, you will be easily understood by the people who speak the language.  Grammar is your friend!

Try to write more positive write ups.  

Have fun!

English grammar is so hard.

I have been learning English for a long time.  I cant really speak English like a native speaker.  It always makes me confused (coufousing)...My foreign (foreginer) friends study and learn Chinese faster than me...Why? Maybe I am really stupid ????
