The standard of the English language in Malaysia has deteriorated to a very alarming level. Before the 1990s, students used to be able to write. The issue back then was the quality. Now, we are tackling the inability to produce.
When kids are willing to be motivated and are given the proper guidance and resources, they will surely excel. However, many parents are unaware that their children lack the ability to write a proper essay. Those who manage to write, turn out compositions that murder the English language and the end results are either essays with lots of grammatical mistakes or essays that are boring, illogical and worse, incomprehensible.
The objective of this blog is 2-pronged:
- to reach out to Malaysian students or those outside the country who wish to improve in their writing skills in English but lack the guidance (plagiarism is however, strongly discouraged);
- to give parents some helpful tips (hopefully!) in assisting their kids to study.
And I have just discovered the blog’s usefulness as a teaching aid for my students and to chart their individual progress.
Have fun learning from the kids as I do!

Hi Katherine… I really like this article on your blog:
I run an educational resource website for children in the UK and wondered if you would allow us to feature this particular piece of writing on a reading comprehension?
Please let me know your thoughts – I do not want to breach any copyrights.

Hi Ben
Sorry for not coming back to you earlier. I haven’t been active on this blog for more than a year until I logged in today.
By all means, go ahead. This blog is intended for educational purposes after all.
