Hola! Me llamo Hannah. Vivo en Boston y estudio en un facultad de derecho. Creo que no se puede ser un buen estadounidense si no habla español. Entonces, quiero aprender español así que puedo hablar con y conocer mas personas y porque, probablemente cuándo seré abogada, voy a tener clientes que hablan español y voy a necesitar comunicar con ellos. Como abogada, quiero ayudar los personas con las problemas legal de vivir como la inmigración, las viviendas, y los beneficios. 안녕하세요! 제 이름은 하나 이에요. 저는 미국 사람 이는데요, 한국 혼혈인 이에요. 그레서 한국어 배우고십어요.

    Gramática Esencial Capítulo 1(E) Ejercicio 1 1. Son las seis y media de la mañana. Yo estoy en un taxi que me lleva al aeropuerto. El conductor va muy despacio porque detrás viene un coche de policía. 2. Yo estoy nerviosa porque tengo que estar en el aeropuerto antes de las siete y media. El taxista conoce bien la carretera, pero yo desconozco la distancia al aeropuerto. Finalmente le digo al taxista que creo que voy a perder el avión. Él me asegura que sabe exactamente lo que hace y me sonrie por el espejo retrovisor. 3. De repente oigo la sirena de la policía. Eso me convenzo de que voy a llegar demasiado tarde. Los agentes nos hablan unos minutos que me parecen una eternidad. 4. En fin, ¿sabes tú lo que quieren ellos? Pues, desean saber si el taxi tiene problemas mecánicos; nos dicen que manejamos nosotros demasiado despacio. ¡Qué ironía! ¿verdad?

    Great job writing about a complex topic! Below are some comments about specific parts of your essay, bracketed and highlighted in green.

    Office politics and dealing with difficult people at work

    Hey everyone!
    Would be really grateful for any help with checking my essay. Thanks a lot!

    As much as we don't want to believe that office politics ex<s>s</s>is<s>i</s>t, unf<s>i</s>ortunately, they do. Dealing with office politics is a part of working in most organizations nowadays. That's why being able to navigate it successfully, as well as <s>to</s> knowing how to deal with difficult people, can help you to be more productive and happier at work.
    Recently, I've watched a video on this topic and would like to share <s>with you</s> some strategies with you that I've learned <s>on</s> about how to avoid drama <s>at</s> in the workplace. [You can either say "at work" or "in the workplace," but not "at workplace."] But before I go into details, let's see what office politics entail.
    The premise behind <s>of the </s>office politics is basically using one's relationships and one's connections for <s>their</s> one's personal growth. [Generally, the phrase "personal growth" has a positive connotation. Since you're implying something negative - i.e., that the person is getting ahead at their job by means other than being good at their job - I would probably use the phrase "personal gain" instead.] <s>Which</s> This means that there could be a lot of shmoozing happening, a lot of side conversations and favouring. [The word "favouring" is spelled differently depending on what type of English you are using. In British English, it's spelled "favouring." In American English, it's spelled "favoring."] People can move ahead in an organization not necessaril<s>l</s>y based on <s>a</s> the quality of the work they provide<s>d</s>, but based on personal rela<s>sh</s>tionships they <s>were</s> are able to establish. [Because you are talking about people being able to move ahead in an organization in the present tense, the basis for that movement should also be discussed either in the present tense or the present perfect. Personally, I would use the present perfect tense, so the sentence would be: "People can move ahead in an organization not necessarily based on the quality of the work they have provided, but based on personal relationships they have been able to establish."] It might sound dis<s>s</s>appointing<s>,</s>. <s>h</s>However, the good news is no one is powerless here. Here are some strategies you may want to use to <s>take</s> make the most of the situation.
    1. Provide high-value, high-quality work daily.
    If you are known as a person<s>,</s> who consistently provides <s>a</s> high-value, high-quality work, you'll be given more independence and <s>confidence</s> respect by your manager and senior managers which basically allows you to avoid being closely intertwined with those drama-filled colleagues of yours and stand out from the crowd.
    2. Become an expert <s>on</s> at your job
    This one ties in with providing <s>the</s> exceptional work daily. Once you've become a go-to expert in an area of work <s>which</s> that is crucial to the business, you will become immune to drama and have more opportunities to move ahead in your organization.
    3. Engage in work-related conflicts and avoid the personal ones.
    Many people think that in order to avoid drama at work, the should stay away from all types of conflicts. It's not true. There are two types of conflicts - professional ones and petty personal ones. Professional conflicts are disagreements between you and your boss or coworkers on how certain processes are being run. In this case, you shouldn't stay away from a conflict and should instead make your stance known. [When you say "you shouldn't stay away from conflict and make your stance known," the reader may think that the "you shouldn't" part of the sentence applies to both staying away from conflict and making your stance known (i.e., "You shouldn't stay away from conflict and you shouldn't make your stance known." I would add a "should instead" after the "and" to make it clear that making your stance known is something you want the person to do.] Make sure that it doesn't sound like a complaint against any existing policies [You could say "any existing policies" or "an existing policy." The word "a" or "an" is a singular article, so you can say "an apple" or "a policy," but you can't say "an apples" or "a policies" because that would be mixing a singular article with a plural noun.] by providing an <s>based-</s>evidence-based solution to the problem.
    Thanks for <s>made</s> making it to the end!

    As Sandra said, this is grammatically correct, so you are off to a great start! However, to sound more fluent, I would change it as follows:

    How to improve my vocabulary.
    As the title says, I want to know how to improve my vocabulary in English. Please tell me how, and check my sentence for errors.

    As for a tip on how to improve your vocabulary, I think watching TV in your target language is really helpful for building vocabulary. I would recommend finding a TV show you like and watching it in English with English subtitles. That way, you can easily pause and look up words you don't know.
