 When I was an undergraduate student, I wasn't very good in writing and speaking English. I had problems writing thesis and reports. Luckily, I took the advice from my English teacher and joined the field where I started independent English language learning. There are lists of materials which help me find the ones I need easily. To help with my writing, I looked at my mapping to learn how to structure a thesis and report. I only need to spend 15 hours of independent English language learning in SEAL to get a bronze award. The SEAL teachers were very helpful and I often sought advice from them on which pages I should read and which exercises I should do. I think the SEAL bronze is a very good scheme for students to start on to improve their written and spoken English. I highly recommend students to make full use of SEAL when studying at PolyU. When I studied at PolyU, I majored in Business Administration and realized English is so important in the business sector. My English wasn't very good, so it was a motivation for me to join the SEAL Bronze Award Program to enhance my foundation of English. There are books on tenses and grammar in SEAL which helped me a lot. I also looked into sections on MI and effective learners to see how effective I learned. There are also checklists to check out the examples on how well and how effective I learned. I think students should join the SEAL award scheme and make full use of the SEAL. It has helped to develop my English-language proficiency and now I can communicate more effectively in my world.
