Hi, the big cat! Are you getting fine with your study? I see you advance in your learning process day by day. By the way, I'm a student too, and my major is drilling and exploitation. I will work for petroleum company next year. As you know, with very heavy curriculum at the technical universities, especially English isn't taught there. So I have to teach myself, I really have difficult time learning English, but I like to be my own teacher. I always think that, there are no questions that don't have answers, there are no problems that don't have solutions, but I've been on my way to find out the right ways for long time, I haven't found it yet. How is your English now? Can you help me with this problem? Good luck with your study and on your examinations, hope to receive your advice.

Hello Neil,

Nice to meet you and thank you for your message. Since you asked, I have to admit that my English is poor and I'm trying to improve it. That's precisely why I am here. My biggest problem is that although I'm capable of reading and understanding writen texts(with the help of an online dictionary), forming acceptable sentences seems to evade me. I have to think hard and process the language consciously when I am writing for lacking of enough input.

I like your attitude toward learning/living/facing difficulties. In addition to what you have said already, when your attitudes are right, there is no barrier too high, no valley too deep, no dream too extreme, no challenge too great for you.(so obviously, it's not my sentence. I borrowed it from an intelligent one.)

I don't think I am qualified to give others suggestions or advices because I am not even satisfied with my own English. Please take a look at this: http://www.english-test.net/forum/ftopic34563-15.html#130349 Jamie told me to absorb natural English by reading a lot of materialsm, and I suggest it as an aid to you. Hope this will help.

All the best,

Garfield

Thank Garfield! It's so amazing. I got some new words and a new way. I don't know that there are so many intelligent members here. I just stopped by for learning new words. Now I know I can learn more from this web and other learners.

Never say die! ok, study hard and just wait for English to grow up in mind and heart. In our job, the first step is exploration and..., finally exploitation drilling(it's my major).Thank you for your 'sure sure' Kitosdad!

Dear Neil,

Why not participate in this forum and discuss with us? I suppose it's not a very good idea to practise your English alone, especially when there are so many kind people who are willing to help you(us). I am looking forward to reading more from you.

Best regard,

P.S. Where are you from, Neil? Could you please give us a bried introduction of yourself?

Infin1ty you are right learning english need from the pearson to share and enter the society and believe me the more you use it the more that it will stoke in your mind and the more it will increase and graw

[Infin1ty]

Yes, Nasser. The more you do, the more you can do. And it is impossible to learn swimming without entering the water.

Hello, Infin1ty and Nasser12sh12! Thank you for your advice. Where I can see your profile so I can imitate yours? As you said it was impossible to know how to swim without jumping into water. Yes, I absolutely agree with you. But I think, knowing which kind of water to touch is also important . Whenever I don't feel like learning English, I have an idea that: Language is the same fashion, it changes; For example, in 1990s, people rushed to learn Russian and French...But now English is the international language. We can see China becoming the powerful country, so what will happen? If we have to learn Chinese is the question that makes me concern. Of course you may ask me what I learn English for, and how long I can live. But how about the younger? So can you help me kick this idea out of my mind? Thank you!

Dear Infin1ty.
You are one of the founders of this web, Aren't you? I think we misunderstood. It's not my real problem. You're so serious, just relax. And I like some given reasons which tell why people should learn English, but I think it's not enough. How are you doing? are you working now, or still a student?
