Hi, I’m Sarah, welcome to The Daily English Show.
One very good way to improve your English is to make mistakes and then learn from them.
So I have an idea. If you would like me to correct your English – please send me an email. And in the subject line write: Error Correction Email.
And send it to thedailyenglishshow at gmail dot com
Then write an email about anything – or you can send me a piece of writing that you’ve used somewhere else and you want checked ... and then I’ll read it and pick up one or two mistakes and talk about them on the show.
Sorry – I’m not going to correct or rewrite the whole thing for you – so don’t like send me your entire essay for school and ask me to correct it, I won’t do that – I’ll just be picking out one or two mistakes.
I think this will be really useful for – obviously for the person who wrote the email – but also for everybody else ... because many other people probably make the same mistake as you and they can learn from your mistake.
So please start sending me your emails. And they can be about whatever you like – just write and tell me about what you did today or what you had for lunch or anything.
