ESL Blogs

Watching movies is one of my hobbies, whenever I have a spare time, I turn on the television and check out the best movies available. One particular channel is Starmovies. It shows or airs movies that has subtitles. My viewing habits became more interesting because I can fully understand the dialogue of every actor. Did you know that through the subtitles, we could practice our reading and listening skills? Yes, you heard me right. When we try to read the words shown as subtitle, somehow our rea

Each month I post a new writing challenge for English learners. Everyone is welcome to join.

Here is a reference list of the first 30 writing challenges on MyEC. Teachers can use these ideas on their own blogs or in their classrooms. Students can review the archived challenges and try out any that seem interesting. It is always fun to revive an old writing challenge! Teachers are welcome to join as well. The more examples we have, the better!

Has blogging given me confidence and encouraged me? I would definitely say YES loudly! Blogging has been changing me day by day that I never expected. Before joining to blog MyEC, I was a kind of person who was quite timid to speak in public as well as worried about making mistakes while speaking or writing.

I’d love to be one of those writers who can write a thousand words a day, every day.

Scratch that. I’d love to be a writer who can write FIVE thousand words a day, especially if they were all brilliant words.

But I’m not.

There are some days I can write three thousand words. Others I can write two. Not two thousand. Two words.

I used to beat myself up over this, but self-flagellation never helped improve my consistency.

Then, last week at my day job, I had a revelation that helped me see my inconsis

I've spent most of my leisure time here on MyEC since I joined this fantastic community two years ago. I've written dozens of blogs and most of them were featured here.

I still remember how excited when my blog was featured for the first time. The blog Native English Speakers' Blogs was a success and actually became a discussion about native speakers' roles (especially those of native English teachers) in helping learners learn English on MyEC. The blog got 92 comments and was at the top of the
