Outpouring Hearts and Minds through Literacy and English Proficiency

Dare to Read and Dare to Speak…
“They had nothing in common but the English language.”
E.M. Forster
Literacy does not only mean about writing, reading and speaking capabilities it has a broader meaning behind and that is to guide people towards awareness and the change which is needed in order to achieve a better way of living.
Therefore, we must have at least something to do during our free time. Try to read any book, make your own story or compose a song. That’s even better because doing those some sort of things can broaden our ideas. We can also express our feelings and thoughts from here.
Meanwhile, speaking English makes it possible for us to gain confidence and stand out among the rest of the nations in the world. Filipino’s seek jobs for survival; we know the fact that most jobs nowadays require applicants to be good in English. Proficiency in the English Language is also beneficial when we want to seek employment in other countries for instance.

These are some of the reasons why we should learn and improve our skill in speaking and writing in English no matter how crooked it is. Anyway, there’s no harm in trying right? So just dare to read and dare to speak.
