My challenges in writing are actually grammar and vocabulary. Honestly, my writing skills are not good enough, sometimes I am still writing wrong words and make mistakes in arranging grammar in my writing. I am also not confident, like when I am writing captions on Social Media, I am still not sure with my caption, so I need to check it again and sometimes I open my dictionary to make sure that my caption is right. Actually, I can do paraphrasing and use some writing application or website to support my writing, like Microsoft Word, and Google Document, but I think I paraphrase words a lot, and my writing will look so long and not in line with the target that I expected.

I also make listening reports, group presentations, and listening logs in the ER-Central. But I think the most helpful topics in improving my language skill in listening are news videos and features/ non-fiction articles. When I listen to those topics, I fin...
