SOS, Pomocy!- it means help!
I do not know if English Grammar God exist but if he do, PLEAS HELP ME!
I'm not afraid about speaking in english but if we are about grammar test, somebody just throw me a a lifeline.
A few days ago I took a test from reported speech and when I was writing it I was "yea yea, I have english in my vines, I just feeling it. What hour is it? 5 o'clock? It's mean tea time!" and other stuff like that. But today I checked my grades (in fact I just wanted to justifited by an email my truancy) and what I saw? THE BIG RED "F". Guys.. I do not know what I am doing wrong.. before actually test I took a lot of them in the internet and I had positive grades.. Do you have any tips? Or you, nativ english people and everyone who know inglish flawlessly, do you keep a secret that I, polish girl from little town is not worth to know?
Please help

If you got your test back, find a question that was marked wrong--a question where you don't understand _why_ your answer was wrong. Then ask about that question here.
The English you used in your question, above, seems fluent, expressive, and easy to understand. (By the way, you meant that felt that English was flowing in your _veins._ "Vines" is real, completely different word. Vines are green plants, like ropes. Tarzan swings through the jungle on vines.)

Yes, it is a problem. And the fact is that you can check and recheck your answers forever but without a native speaker to correct you are likely to never become very good.
I know that someone will slam me for this but it's the truth. Think about it, we all learned our native language from other native speakers.
I wish you luck.

No, no, she graduated English Philology. It's not common to have native speakers as teachers in such a small town like mine. It's a pity, isn't it?
