On the bright side, uncritical graduates are still able to survive in the working world. But the ignorance that perpetuates is at times unbearable.

I was, and probably will still be in the distant future. At present, I am a special needs teacher.

Hi YellowBelt, do you give tuition in creative writing? If my child can be taught by you, I do not need to loose sleep during her essay writing exams and tests.

I also want to know how to improve composition writing for my son. His sentence structure is just not there. He reads a lot but somehow can’t write. Very headache now. Any tips?

[Herbie]

for sec level, can the student survive if he or she can handle just narrative and recount type of essay and not expository and argumentative type of essay?

@yeomaylin: Unfortunately, my agenda is utterly packed for the next few years (at least)

@Herbie: Definately! 100%! (Well, that was how I survived) That is of course provided that the student has strategies to tackle narrative and recount type essays.
@sunnydays2: sentence structure is a foundation grammar issue. In what way is your child unable to form sentences?

My son is now in Sec 1 and English is his weakest subject, hates to write and recently failed a expository writing. He is a easy going child, normally goes with the flow and when asked for his opinion, his usual reply is, ‘I don’t know’.

Do you have any suggestion how to motivate/stimulate his interest in language? Expository essay can ‘kill’ him!
