Everything has an aim. And the aim that I hope to Achieve from my Language Learning Plan is improving my English. I had written many strategies in my plan to develop my skills in English which are vocabulary, writing, speaking and pronunciation.
A few days ago I discussed with my father about my improvement in English and he advised me to give the best effort if I want to achieve my goals and he said “if you want to develop your speaking skill quickly, you should try to speak English in your home, then I told him that this idea is one of my strategies in my plan then he said “I’m ready to help you if you want any help”.
I started to speak English in my home with my cousin two days ago. In that day, we decided to speak English throughout the day. It was difficult for us because it was the first time and every one in our home was laughing when they heard our Conversation. Although it was a difficult experience, we benefited from our mistakes because we shared our ideas together to avoid our mistakes at the next time.
I was always confusing between two words which are nature and nurture. These words I learned them from my Academic Reading and Writing class, and my teacher tried to help me to understand what is the different between them and how I can distinguish between them. But I did not get the idea clearly because some students were noisy. So, after I returned to my home, I worked on the two words. Firstly, I looked for their meaning in Oxford Dictionary. When I distinguished between their meaning I understood what my teacher were talking about to help me to distinguish between them by their form. She said that nurture has to two letters “R” and it means the help, education, care, etc. that is given to a child who is growing and developing whereas nature has one letter “R” and it means all the things in the world that were not made or caused by people.

Good job. I liked the discussion of your speaking strategy. It seems useful and fun, too, which is great! A transition between that and your discussion of vocabulary, specifically, the “nature” and “nurture” question, would have been helpful, as I got a little confused because I didn’t realise you were changing topics. In addition, that section needs a little more analysis and extension. For example, you could discuss how you will approach this type of problem in the future, or how you can apply the same strategy to other vocabulary, etc.
