My impression to the English Only policy is that it is
really difficult most especially to construct words
because maybe it would cause a grammatically error.
But it has still benefits to give to the students because
it hones our speaking skills.
It has the advantage of honing our communication
skills and then we can use it in terms of
communicating in other countries.)
I'm nervous okay maybe I'll make a mistake in
constructing the word.
I feel nervous because I might commit mistake when it
comes to grammar.
It is hard for me when it comes to English grammar hence,
I will not be able to express my feelings or ideas.
By this policy, I would be able to improve my speaking
skills and I am not shy anymore to communicate with other
people.
It helps you to improve your vocabulary and
communication skills because you can speak in English
fluently.
The advantage is you know how to deal with other people
especially to the other countries.
Through reading books, dictionary.
The best thing that I like about English is that I will be able
to train myself and I will be challenged to do my best in
speaking in English.
