ESL Blogs

You may have learned English for years or ages or even decades, and already learned all the basic grammar rules, but when you're trying to write something in English, you'll find it more difficult than you may have thought. You can understand or even enjoy what other people wrote, but you find it so hard to write something yourself - even when you did manage to write a blog or comment, you may have failed to properly express yourself, or other members can't understand what you were trying to say

Writing Prompt ~ Good or Well?

Hi Craig,

The plane landed well in Brisbane on Wednesday. It was already Thursday and my back kept hurting even after so many hours of flight. I needed to take a ride with my good friend Bryan to see the  family's doctor since mom and dad were busy at work. Thanks God it was nothing and the doctor said I was doing well ! Apart from that, I can tell you that my sister Catrina is doing  so well too, after serious injuries in a car crash two months ago. I myself visited

Anytime in every evening, my son often suddenly came to me and said: "Mom, hug me" or "Mom, kiss me" and we exchanged kisses and hugs for a little while. I sometimes forgot to do that, but he never did. I remember his "wet" kisses full of milk smell when he was just a little kid. I remember long restless nights when he had fever, I was lying beside him and put my face against his to know if his fever was faded away or not. I remember when I got sick he was sitting beside me for a long time, hold

Gareth was organizing toilet papers at his job when suddenly he saw a powerful oval light approaching the supermarket entrance.

"Oh God, what's this?" he asked eagerly.

This is my second attempt in writing a blog based on Expector's Writing Challenge. I was not too happy with my previous blog; A Weathered Old Lady which I think I didn't answer the challenge properly.

The bespectacled, studious, reed-thin young man was so absorbed in his writing that he seemed totally oblivious to the fact that the balmy weather was turning into one big, vicious thunderstorm. He has been writing non stop since that day. It was like his very existence depended on him finishing the

An incredible night sky view

There was a night I was thoughtful and I decided to contemplate the sky. It was very starry when all of sudden I realised a flash-shaped light crossing it. What a magic experience! I had never seen a phenomenon like this. It was a beautiful comet with a long blue tail that had just passed me by. In fact, I didn't know how fast comets could be. At first, I was doubtful whether it is a comet or not, because it takes

Maybe you have already heard that Japanese people are hardworking, Germans are punctual, Englishmen are reserved. Can we apply something like this on the whole nation? As we know every nation is created by the people and their characteristic features, customs, habits, atmosphere in the society, historical development etc., in fact all these aspects from my point of view form typical national character. Since everyone of us belongs to some nation, it is obvious that sometimes we might be not awar
