About Speaking And Writing

There was a time, way back in the murky past, when understanding English Grammar was considered to be one of the fundamentals taught at schools in the English speaking world. For some reason, this has changed over the past few decades and a more holistic approach to literacy instruction has been advocated. However, even highly intelligent students now seem to struggle when it comes to the conventions of writing in English. Clearly, there are some things that just don’t automatically happen via exposure to language and texts. There are still some basic elements of language learning, including those pesky Grammar rules, which must be actively taught.

In fact, it is somewhat misleading to refer to English Grammar rules as ‘rules’. They are not rules in the same way that we have rules of cricket, for instance. If we wanted to know about the rules of cricket, we would simply consult the official Cricket Rule Book. However, we cannot do something similar if we want to know about English Grammar rules. There is no official English Grammar Guide that contains all the laws of the language. These rules are not so much ‘rules’ as they are ‘conventions’, agreed upon quite informally over time by the majority of those who use the language.

• You should never discuss your bad experiences at previous jobs during your interview. Your opinion of your last job would in all likelihood be viewed as gossip or sour grapes by the interviewers. Also refrain from providing confidential information related to your past employers, especially in case where your current prospective employer may be a competitor to your previous employer. Overall, staying away from any topics that are related to poor experiences at your earlier places of employment will add to your professional image in the eyes of interviewers.

The police officer, my friend and my co-worker would all understand me. They would get the message I intended to convey. Does this mean that understanding English Grammar is unnecessary? This would be the case if it were only the meaning of our communications that were important. However, this is clearly not the case. Successful communication between two people involves not only the sender of the message, but also the receiver of the message. And the perception formed by the receiver of the message can be vitally important. This perception will be influenced by the manner in which the message is sent. If the conventions of Grammar are followed, the message may well be received more favourably since both the sender and receiver of the message are using the same system for communicating.

Needless to say, there were a number of other bloopers that appeared in our church bulletins during the 27 years that I served as church secretary.  All were good for a hearty laugh and, I guess because of my character and personality, they loved to let me know when a really good one appeared.  The best way to handle that was to laugh about it although I did tell some that I would do that on purpose, now and then, just to find out if they were paying attention to what I wrote in the bulletin.  I realized that this  was a  little white lie but I felt the Good Lord would forgive me because I was only human and telling me about it was done in good humor.

• Remuneration is another aspect that you must refrain from discussing during the first round of interviews. If the question about salary package does come up during the first round of interviews, you must maintain composure and inform the interviewers about your expectations. At no point should you leave an interview in between just because the salary package the prospective employers are offering is not up to your expectations.

These are all some effective tips that would go a long way in helping you landing that dream job
