Hi every body.
My name is Le, I'm 22 years old. I have just graduated in Accounting majoring 3 months ago. I liked to become an internal audit since I was a student of the third year at UEH . Now I am working in Binh Duong province as an Internal auditor.
I seldom speak English. When I need to write or speak English, I always think I will be wrong and I am afraid I will make mistakes.
Because of the mind I am bad in English, I never apply for any foreign companies. But 5 months ago, a Singapore Company in VISIP looked for a candidate for internal auditor position, I was very very interesting in this position, so I sent my CV to apply. when I prepared for the interview in this company, I practiced to talk fluently and my older sister helped me to do this. She said "You speak like a duck sings"

. My younger sister also laughed at me when we made a trial interview each other. hichic !
I was interviewed by a Vietnamese HR staff and a Philippines manager. I could listen and answer all questions of Vietnamese but it is difficult for me to listen clearly what Philippines has asked to answer. I remember she had asked me 3 times for the expect salary question to get my answer. The result is I was out but the lesson I got was "
Speak English is not really scary".
My second is when I was interviewed for my present job in a Singapore company too. The interviewer asked me to introduce myself in English. It is not so difficult for me because I have prepared it. After I did, what do you think what he talked to me?

He said "you speak not good, I think the Englishman only understand a few words that you are saying..............................

......But I like you because of your confidence and nature. For this position, English is not important but it is an advantage ". He recommend me to practice for the standard pronunciation.
In my work, I often use
www.Hellochao.vn to translate my reports. Sometimes, I write email to my leader, it's very short, but I fell very hard. I always use Google to find all the guide relate with the structures which I write to check and make sure all are right. So I spend many time for a short email.
I realize that my English skill is very very bad in both speak and write. It makes me fell unsure in work. Now, I really want to improve my English skill....I hope I can speak English fluently and confidently.......
Let's practice and improve this!
The sentence I must remember in my mind to learn English well is "Don't be afraid of making mistakes". If English is not good We will lose many opportunities.

How about you?
