Challenges of Learning English .(Please correct my Notebook entry) I am learning English since childhood. But even at this stage, I am not much confident about my grammar and accent, especially in the pronunciation of those new words that I learn in my day to day life. Might be It sounds some awkward and confusing. How can a person who is learning English since long time still facing these issue? You might be thinking that either I didn't pay attention to my grammar and pronunciation or I am that kind of a person who ignores his mistake. There is some truth behind this, I am not denying that fact. Whatever my English today is, I am the person who is responsible for it wholesomely. But It doesn't mean that I didn't try to improve my English. I used to read a newspaper regularly. I have collected some good vocabulary and also tried to improve my grammar part. Even after doing this what I have realized that I was lacking proper approach towards English. I was more on learning new things than practicing what I have already learned. You can say whatever about it either poor planning or lack of interest. But my thinking is, I was learning English like a work that I had to finish on proper time. I never enjoyed learning a global language which is also the connecting language of the world. Most of the works all over the world happen in this language only. Not only English helps to connect with the people of the other parts of the world it also helps to get access to huge amount of research paper, books, innovation, ideas etc. So learning English should be the essential part of personality development. Sometimes it works like tools to express oneself and other times it works like an adhesive to stick with the other people of the world. Despite its importance, I didn't develop curiosity about learning English in depth. But now I can understand the value of English very well. So I started learning English with a purpose. My goal is to speak like a native speaker, write like academician and think like a child who can dare to think like anything. I pretty hope ful that Italki community will help me to achieve this goal.

I have been learning English since childhood, but even at this stage, I am not confident about my grammar and accent, especially in the pronunciation of new words that I learn in my day to day life.
It sounds strange and confusing. How can a person who has been learning English for a long time still have these issues? You might be thinking that either I didn't pay attention to my grammar and pronunciation or I am the kind of a person who ignores his mistakes.
There is some truth behind this, I am not denying that fact.
Whatever my English speaking ability is today, I am the person who is responsible for it, but It doesn't mean that I didn't try to improve my English. I used to read a newspaper regularly. I have collected some good vocabulary and also tried to improve my grammar knowledge. Even after doing this what I have realized is that I was lacking the proper approach towards English. I was more concerned with learning new things than practising what I have already learned.

You can say whatever about it either poor planning or lack of interest, but my thinking is, I was learning English like a task that I had to finish on time. I never enjoyed learning a global language which is also the connecting business language of the world.

Most of the world's business happens in this language. Not only does English help to connect with other parts of the world it also helps to get access to huge amounts of research papers, books, innovations, ideas etc. So learning English should be an essential part of my development. Sometimes it works as a tool to express oneself and other times it works like an adhesive to stick with other people of the world.
Despite its importance, I didn't develop any curiosity about learning English in depth, but now I can understand the value of English really well.
So I started learning English with a purpose. My goal is to speak like a native speaker, write like an academic and think like a child who can dare to think like anything. I am pretty hopeful that Italki community will help me to achieve this goal.

WELL DONE a good essay.

I have corrected with a British grammar slant, we do not like the words BUT or AND AT BEGINNING OF SENTENCES.

really well = more natural than very well for this essay

pretty well = you are using a natural sounding collacation WELL DONE

English is considered the business language of the world it is widely spoken but not the most spoken in terms of the world's population.

adhesive to stick with other = TO BIND I think would be a better word to use use adhesive.
