 | Basic English Writing TipsLanguage learned: English Level: Open to all Members: 110 | Description: Useful English writing grammar tips and traps for learners!
Everyone is welcome! After correcting over 3,000 exercises and working for 10 years with international students, I've found that many of my busuu friends from Latin America and students have similar issues!! This is a new group and happy for any suggestions on topics or problems. All of the topics may not meet your needs, however if you read through the posts and find one good tip that you can use, then it's been worthwhile hasn't it! ;) ha ha ha. Thanks for your time and checking it out amigos & amigas! Please leave me comments, feedback and suggestions on topics. |
