Week 8: Using social network to improve English


Using social networks to improve English



                
    Social networks offer several things to users such as entertainment, chatting with friends or others, getting knowledge or experience. Social networks- Facebook, twitter     , Whatapp, Line are so famous for crowded. Most people usually use them for entertaining. Someone often chat to ask about homework or others such personal profile, post status, gossip with friends or practice English with foreigners. In this section, I chat with foreigners for practicing English coupled with asking about their culture. In addition, I chat for homework that a teacher gives me to do outside classroom for writing skill and speaking skills.

I chat with my friend who lives in abroad. He is friendly and nice on chatting. My friend, whose name is Costa Pius, greets me around 3:40 p.m. Time in the United Kingdom is slower than Thai time about 6 hours. In the United Kingdom is 8:40 a.m. The first time he greeted me, good morning- in fact- that time is afternoon in Thai. After that, he usually greets me, hello or hi only. This week I ask him about what he plans for his future. He wants to be financial director because he wants to get respects from the others. In addition, he needs to have good wife and good family. His dream is very big. However, my dream in future is being good English teacher and having comfortable family. He does not mind to tell about his personal information. When I chat with Costa Pius, I enjoy chatting with him coupled with getting new idea about English such as culture, how to communicate easy to understand and sharing new experience with new friend.

    In brief, every student can use social networks for communicating with foreigners. As usual, I use social networks for communicating with teachers and my roommate about homework and asking what I do not understand in private group. In previous time, I do not like to chat with foreigners because I do not dare to speak English. I also think they do not understand what I say. At this time, a teacher tells me to do homework by chatting with a foreigner for writing skill. I usually chat with a foreigner about general things. I can practice English and understand what a foreigner chat to me. Therefore, I am good at typing on computer as faster than before. I think learning by self is good for students.
