EVERYTHING LIES UPON US...!!! POSITIVE THINKING CAN CREATE GREAT DIFFERENCE

Salam & Good Morning !

May this lovely morning of 10 Muharam is granted with full of blesses .

"Madam, saya dah belajar English dari darjah 1 lagi tapi tk pandai2 sampai sekarang"

"Susahlah grammar ni...Madam"

"Madam, kalau tak pandai English tak dpt kerja ke?"

These were the questions and laments used to raise out by my students which I believe are the same questions mingled in many other students out there...

Truly indeed, I don't have specific answer for those questions and I also do not think it's wise enough to point fingers blaming individual or organisation or system for those matters.

Everything lies upon us...how serious we are in achieving what we need in life. Are we courageous,spirited and motivated enough? Are we willing to sacrifice our leisure moments, valuable time and even money for enhancing our mastery in this language?

I myself used to be the worst student and was placed in the second last group of English class!
I also used to lament the same thing...BUT ...what change me is...transforming the negative to positive and STOP lamenting , START taking action with full of spirit to be SUCCESSFUL !

We can do it !

EXPANDING VOCABULARIES THROUGH VOCABULARY TABLEs TECHNIQUE





Lots of us having problem in increasing or memorising new vocabularies in learning English. Typically, what we do is writing down the vocabulary lists and try to memorize the new words...

Oppsss... this is not very helpful as it's only for short term memory.
Far much better way is expanding vocabulary with Vocabulary Tables !

Vocabulary tables can be very useful in helping intermediate to advanced learners increase vocabulary. It is based on different forms of a particular word that is known to them. In fact, it is very helpful for 'long-term' memory too...

Here is an example of Vocabulary Tables :

Classical Music

Verb             Noun          Adjective              Adverb
melodize      melody       melodius             melodiusly
                   melodeon       melodic             melodically
                 melodiusness
                   melodizer

Details of Vocabulary Table Lesson is taught on Holiday English for Adults !!! Calling out for free early birds registration...

PLEASE HELP ME... I D0N'T KNOW HOW TO SPELL...


Menarik juga utk brkongsi pengalaman di sebuah pasaraya thari tadi. 
Seorang gadis muda mghmpiri sy utk mmpromosikn tilam dn katil. Kebetulan sdg mncari katil baru sy trtarik utk mndgr dgn lbh lnjut. Dia mmbawa sy brjumpa ketuanya dn beliau mmberi penerangan lbh lnjut dlm bhs inggeris yg sedikit brcampur bhs melayu. 

Diringkaskn cerita sy brsetuju utk mmbeli brg trsebut dn gadis itu diarah utk mengisi borang tempahan. Sy berikn mklumat yg dipinta. Tiba di ruangan description of product ketuanya menyebut perincian produk dlm bhs ing spt king size matress...dll. 

Gadis itu trkial2 smbil memandang sy lalu dia tanya macamana ya kak nak eja? Sy trkejut ttp terus mengajar beliau menulis perkataan2 trsebut. Ketuanya menyebut : F.O.C - 3 pillows n 1 bolster...
Saya mengajarnya mengeja prkataan2 trsebut...bimbang disalah tulis habislah saya..


Sy ckp sedih dgn penguasaan bhs inggeris gadis trsebut yg ckp lemah wpun sudah tamat pelajaran hgga ting. 5
Nasib baik dia diterima bekerja disitu ttp sy sempat nasihatkn dia agar lebih berusaha utk kuasai bhs inggeris...


Doakan yg trbaik utk beliau.
