How to self study English writing - Self study writing in English

so today i want to begin by sharing some  different helpful ways to self-study writing  

okay so let's talk about three ways to self-study  writing first keep a journal and we'll talk about  

each of these in detail so keep a journal use  english writing prompts talk about what that  

is and write a summary so let's go through these  three self-study skills or self-study methods so  

first is to keep a journal so unfortunately oh no  journal around me so a journal is like a notebook  

that we write our thoughts in so in a journal  you can write about the events of your day  

you can write about your thoughts and  feelings this will help you express yourself  

so it might not be something that you have  normally done or that you have done before  

but if you keep a journal in english this is an  excellent way to practice writing about your life  

right and all of our study skills are connected so  if you practice writing about your day and writing  

about your thoughts your feelings your opinions  in english every day or very often then it will  

help your speaking too right so you become more  skilled at talking about whatever it is you want  

to write about so for me if i try to keep a  journal in another language it i write about  

uh what i am comfortable writing about  but try to challenge myself a little so  

let's say i want to write about where's my mouse  there we go the events of my day so let's say i  

am studying english and i know how to talk about  simple things like i woke up i brushed my teeth  

i ate breakfast some simple things there so i  can also challenge myself what does this mean  

well maybe i did something and i don't know how to  say it in english keeping a journal is the perfect  

time to look up new words use them to talk  about your day and expand your vocabulary  

improve your writing and improve  your speaking and confidence okay so  

keeping a journal excellent excellent way  to practice your writing and something  

you can see over time your skill will improve  right so also make sure to try and write  

as long as you can as much detail as you can so  not just two sentences right it is hard to talk  

about our day in just two sentences so maybe  try 10 sentences or more okay so keep a journal  

our next self-study writing method is use english  writing prompts so what is a writing prompt  

a writing prompt is a sentence or a question  that we read and then write about that thing  

so for example a writing prompt might say  something like um tell me what music you like and  

there you go okay that's the topic i will  write about so english writing topics  

okay you can use google or any search engine  

to look up english writing prompts there  are so many and just choose one a day  

this will help you to learn to write about  many different topics and again make sure to uh  

use your phone or your computer to translate use  a dictionary use tools to help you learn the words  

and phrases you need to write about  these many different topics so here's an  

example i just searched english writing prompts  so let's take a look at some that would be easy  

or at least good starting questions to write  about maybe could be difficult could be easy  

so your favorite childhood vacation wow so that  one topic you could write so much about right  

you could write about your favorite teacher  right describe them what they are like  

in writing so many things you could talk  about write about your first job right  

so there are hundreds and hundreds and  hundreds of these kinds of questions out there  

so all you have to do is search for them  and then write about them each day okay

okay so the next way we can self-study  writing is to write a summary so a summary  

let's talk about what that means first  a summary is like let's say i have a  

long long long story or a long movie or something  long and i want to tell you just the most  

important information about that thing let's  say i watched a great movie and my friend asks  

me what was the movie about well i'm not going  to tell them the whole story right maybe just  

the most important information so if someone asked  me what happened in the avengers end game movie  

i could say something like oh um they all came  together to fight thanos in the end well i don't  

want to ruin it for you if you haven't seen it but  i would just give some simple information right  

this is a great way to learn how to talk about big  ideas in a short way sometimes when we are trying  

to express ourselves in another language maybe  there are so many things we're thinking about  

and so many things we want to say it can be  hard to uh just say what we need to say right  

so practicing writing again helps our speaking  too you can write summaries about anything you  

like okay so this is always important write  about what you like right anytime you self study  

you should enjoy it so you can write summaries  about movies books tv shows things happening in  

the news and so on anything that you like okay so  remember writing a summary keeping a journal and  

using english writing prompts are all  excellent ways to self-study writing
