Week 2

I used to read my drafts out loud or silently to myself to find and correct my errors in writing. It depends on how much time I have. For example, when I had to write in class, I only read to myself because I didn't want to bother my classmates, and it is also faster to check my draft that way. However, I had to write something at home, I read it out loud, so that I can find my mistakes. Honestly, I used to write a lot in my language, and I feel like I never had enough time to write, especially when I took a writing test. It is so much easier to write in Vietnamese, I rarely feel like lack of words t write. Instead, I had so much to say and always ran out of time to write what I had in my mind. For me, there is  a big difference between English and Vietnamese in using words. English has words that look the same but have different meaning while Vietnamese words are different in appearance and meaning. Therefore, I sometimes use online resources to investigate questions about language in order to improve my knowledge. I tried "Check your grammar" to find my errors in English, and that worked well for me. I think that is the only strategy I use for writing, so I do not know if there are any ways that not work for me.
