Practice for English writing After reading people's writings that are written in my native language on italki, I was quite impressed. I've given up learning new languages easily, thinking that learning and being fluent in other language is really hard thing to achieve, despite the fact that I have a great interest in learning other languages. I didn't work hard, thinking that I wouldn't be good enough to convey my thoughts through writing. Reading other people's writings on italki, however, changed my perspective. I've usually thought that my English writing skill is decent, considering the fact that I've never been abroad. There are, however, people out there who can write in almost perfect Korean, even though they have learned the language less than 3 years. Seeing that my English writing skill is similar to that of other people's Korean skills who have learned the language way shorter than I did on learning English made me feel shameful about myself. As I become a sophomore this year, who major in English language, I am determined to work hard to improve my English skills overall. On this site italki, I will especially focus on practicing my writing. I hope I would be able to write really sophiscated writings someday this year :)
