My complete name Fathia Lutfiananda, people usually call me Fathia or Tum. Now I’m in progress to finish my undergraduate thesis with topic about Volcanology. I had lack experience writing in English, specially the kind of scientific article. Because my grammar it’s not really good. I’m kind of talk active person, so literally I used to ignore my bad grammar, before. But I realize, I can’t be like that forever. I need to publish some scientific paper someday, because I plan to pursue my master degree in Europe or Japan. So I try to improve my ability in English and grammar by reading novel in English. I start my reading list by some novel that easily to understand like romance novel from Coullen Houck, the title is Tiger’s Curse. Well, it’s not totally romance, but kind of fantasy. The story it’s about a prince from India that have been cursed by a mean witch. The prince have been in tigers form for about hundred years. He surviving to life as long like that because effect from the curse and also magic from an amulet. The amulet it’s so powerful, which is why the witch want to steal it. And come the heroine, Kelsey, the one that will help the prince to break the curse.
Now, reading novel in English became my habit, and I feel it’s really help to improve my ability to understand English literature. Of course it’s also increase my confidence to speak in English. But I thought my grammar is still awful, like you see in this article. So me and my friends, Ika Rahmawati and F Dhitya decided to join this program. Show more10 years ago

You will need it as you progress with your studies. I will start looking for universities if you want to continue with your study. The goal is really to read what the universities tell you about the programs, life-styles and other information. While reading such information, look at how the grammar is used.Show more10 years ago
