Our language is completely expressed in speech. Therefore, the best technique to learn English is to practice speaking it. It is like an ability which can be predicted with use and practice.

One cannot achieve proficiency in speaking a language if there is no opportunity to interact with people in the same l

THE MAGIC OF LOVE -2

Love is the most influential emotion experienced by us. It transcends all barriers of caste, color creed and nationality. No surprise cupid, the god of love in Greek mythology, is blind. When sentiments of love go beyond a person, he/she throws all worry to winds and follows the purposes of his/her love, blindly. He/she cannot tolerate any obstacles in his corridor. Love makes possible him/her to do even the impossible. In fact, it is like a powerful flame that can burn and destroy everything th

Yeah I can remember that time. I was 11 years old in that time and I was crying a lot. I wanted to go to the sea but there was no answer from my family. So I couldn't stop crying and I wend to my room and took a sheet of paper and then I started drawing which was in my mind. That was my first time to do something like that.Yeah I can remember that time. I couldn't stop of drawing. I was drawing angrily and dreadfully. and when I finished I couldn't believe what I've did. Because I didn't draw be

Crop Art--Rice Fields of Japan.

Farmers create extraordinary rice "murals" in Japan by planting rice in different colours in Japanese paddy fields.

The farmers first sketch out their designs on computers. Hundreds of villagers and other volunteers(!) then help to plant the four different coloured varieties of rice in the vast fields.We can see a wonderful result when diligence and love for beauty combine and merge.Is there anything like this in other countries?

But what do you do with the rest of your time?"We sleep late, fish a little, play with our children,and take siestas with our wives.In the

Just a thought...

It worries me to hear the rising generation using some made-up and lousy words. I couldn't even find it in the dictionary.Technology is indeed getting better, serving and making our lives easier but what is happening to the vocabulary, spelling, grammar and pronunciation of these people?Tell me, if we continue to move on to another century with a better tech, shouldn't that make language better too?

The Outcome

When do you say 'I like'? When do you say 'I love'?I do not say I like teaching English rather I say I love teaching English. When you love the thing you do, you put everything in it, even your very heart and mind. I want the outcome to be the best. Wouldn't you?Imagine doing the thing you love the most everyday. Let's say singing. What do you think will happen?Let me hear your thoughts...THAT my friend, is what's going to happen to your English skills too.

One of wake-up-early days.It was only 5 when I got up.The sky was still dark, but there were orange clouds.The street was empty which is amazing! No people wandering around talking, no cars making noise, the birds singing, the wind blowing, it's all great here. OK, so the wind was a bit cold, but you should really do this sometimes, you'll surprise. I wonder if my friends is sleeping, some wake up very early, some start to sleep very early in the morning, that what I heard.And I really mean what

All because I couldn't have been confident. But every time I get into unconfident situation, I always find out that I shouldn't have to AFTER THAT. And it's not
