Oh-My-Gosh
There may be a need for me to refrain from posting in this forum until I can re-enroll in some form of higher education (predominately English) as I feel my grammar may cause some internal grievances. 😮
Any suggestions on which school would provide the best outcome in Melbourne?
Cheers

My Spelling And Grammar SUCKS ! massive weakness of mine !

The best outcome? No, but I’d be happy to join you. I consider myself to have good English skills but I can always learn more.

CAE have great teachers. I’ve studied some VCE subjects with them and assume their short courses to be just as good. They do have one on grammar for $150.

There are plenty of good short courses which you can do online.

March 12, 2012 at 6:56 am #1093679Up::0Great thread guys, so very true. I am certainly not going to say I am perfect, but when I get resumes through and the cover email reads:
Thnks for reading my resume, hope 2 hear from U soon.
They are not even getting the courtesy of a response!
I have no real issues with people having issues spelling are incorrect use of apostrophes etc. As I get some of that from the weird language known as English, but to use txt language for a resume response… really?
