Jehwan Lee "Practice Blog Entry 1"

Officially, there are two goals for ESL210; improving reading and listening skill. But especially, I want to know how to writing long essay.
The reason why I need the ability is that more high level course, better writing skill is required. Almost academic fields of courses assign long essay for final. I think that like developing many other kinds of linguistic skill, there is no better way to write long essay than practice. To learn more efficiently, first, write small paragraph, slowly extend the page. Moreover, remembering the word that is used to be paraphrased will help encourage speed to write.
Then how about reading skill. Knowing how to read is essential when I study because we study by English! And there are several type of reading categorized by their perpose such as for explain, for insist or just for interest. When I read something, I read it differently according to what the reading type is because there is efficient way that each type has. Therefore, it is good way to practice separately.
Finally, there is limit to develop skill both reading and writing if I don't have enough words. Therefore, steady remember words is very important.
My hope for this course is that lead me to write many things. Honestly, I cannot write well and even write too slowly. So I will fix it in this semester and this is what I want to get.
