i0 I ha=e been stru lin to learn the En lish lan ua e for a lon time. I found that

the main wea$ness of my En lish *roficiency is that my =ocabulary in this lan ua e is limited. 8oreo=er" I tend to ma$e a lot of mista$es es*ecially in rammar in both my written and s*o$en En lish. Another wea$ness that I $now I should be tryin to

o=ercome is my mis*ronunciation of words in En lish. I tend to ma$e *ronunciation that sounds a lot li$e 8alay lan ua e. Aowe=er" I would say that my stren th in En lish is that I do not ma$e a lot of s*ellin mista$es in my writin s. In order to im*ro=e my En lish lan ua e" es*ecially for *re*aration of ta$in this En lish &an ua e Droficiency sub<ect" I ha=e ta$en a few ste*s on my own. I started to read En lish boo$s" ma azines and articles *ublished online. Althou h at first" some of the articles that I was readin were =ery confusin " I $e*t on readin on my own. For words that is =ery hard to understand I tried to find their meanin in dictionaries or in online. In time" my =ocabulary started to im*ro=e and my rammar has im*ro=ed as well. As I ma$e effort to im*ro=e my En lish *roficiency" it seems that my confidence in handlin the s*o$en as*ect of it also im*ro=es. I could easily tal$ in En lish to et my messa e across" howe=er" I still belie=e my *ronunciation still could be im*ro=ed a lot.

The $nowled e that IO=e

ained durin

this coursewor$ would ma$e me more

confident in s*ea$in in En lish with other *eo*le. #y increasin my En lish *roficiency" I would be able to im*ro=e my eneral $nowled e as well. Since most of the information in the internet is in En lish" my *referred lan ua e while researchin in the internet has been slowly shiftin from 8alay to En lish. In summary" I belie=e that by ta$in this sub<ect on En lish *roficiency" I

mana ed to im*ro=e my $nowled e in En lish lan ua e and also ained confidence in communication with others in En lish.
