Writing in my journal

What is a journal? Why do I have to write in a journal for? Can his help me improve my English? These are some of the questions you may be having. As an English teacher I can answer you these most common questions you may have. First of all as we speak in class, to know English is not only to talk or read it but also to write it correctly. Most of the students have good understanding by reading it but not too many can express their thoughts the correct way. English has a different sintaxis ( order in the sentence). In Spanish words are written in a longer text and are also read from back to front.For instance take this example: Pedro tiene dolor de cabeza muy fuerte-- if you translate in the same order it would be read like this:Peter has pain of headache very heavy (this is wrong order) The correct written text would be : Peter's headache is very painful. As you see, not only there is a change in the text order but also using vivid verbs that enhance the text meaning. Writing in a journal will help you develope more writing skills; the more you practice, the better it will be. Writing in a journal will let your mind go free, to start developing your written thoughts. It is like talking with your pencil. Maybe if you are a shy person, through the written text you will express feelings, thoughts that other way you wouldn't dare to share. So cheer up! Begin with a short paragraph, and show everybody your new skills in the journal.
