Workshop: How to Use Good Grammar in Spoken and Written Academic Text


Dr. Siti Jamilah Bidin started off the workshop by introducing herself and her education background. She also told us about her passion in english and other languages. She then asked if we have difficulties in writing and advised students to read more materials to improve writing skills. Examples are given to aid students' understanding. After presenting a few slides on why study grammar she gave us some texts and exercises regarding pronouns and contractions.

In this workshop, I have learned that language is very important in everyday life. I also realized that there are always somethings that I did not know about, and these pieces of facts give better understanding to the things I already know. In other words, there is always room for improvement and it is best that you learn to improve your understanding and command of the language.
