Review : Quick and Dirty Tips - Grammar Girl


          My first impression of this website, Quick and Dirty Tips, is interesting, useful, and charming. The website is good and useful for people who want to develop a habit of learning English every day. The length of every article is not too long, which just takes a little time to read. Not like some business magazines, their articles are long, and there are many proper nouns or some words we do not use in our daily life.For me, it is good to make me force myself to read two or three articles every day in order to improve my reading speed. Also, its dictions are not too difficult, so it would acceptable to read every day. It will be helpful for me to keep a habit of  reading.

Thus, it is better to give toy bones or bone-shaped treats instead. I thought dogs love bones, but actually they don't like that.

AWL Exercises

My Autonomous English/Language Learning Plan

In this semester, I've learned a lot of useful online learning tools and websites which can improve my English ability in the fields of reading, listening, writing, and speaking. My learning plan for English will first focus on reading and writing, and then listening and speaking. Especially practice speaking, vocabulary, and grammar. First, to understand more content and advance my speed of reading, I will use AWL and some news websites. AWL can increase my vocabulary, so this is a basis that I must know the words in particular amount of words and be familiar with the common vocabulary. After getting ready for that, I will go to the websites, like CNN and BBC, to read extensively to connect with the world and to know more things.
