When I was in college, I would tutor other students and housewives to earn an extra buck. Generally they would hire me to help them with their conversational English or with English as a school subject. When anxious parents would ask me how their wards could improve their language skills, I would tell them – Read, read, read….Read everything on earth….It does not have to be your text book, it does not have to be age appropriate, it does not even have to be relevant to your subject. Knowledge of any kind never goes to waste. Its upto you to use that knowledge well and wisely.
This illustration was inspired by that very advice.

Very True. Reading is the Best way to Improve your Knowledge and Language.
I realised this just few months ago, when I was restless with despair. I found that by reading novels, I got into their worlds and liked the characters and pined to know the next chapter.
Reading is Oxygen to the Heart.

Yes, reading helps a lot! English is my second language and have to say that if it wasn’t for books, tv shows, and movies in English, I don’t think I would’ve been able to learn English as a second language.

Same’s the case with me. I don’t think I must have learnt as much at school as I did from other books. Thanks for liking the post 😊

Yeah, I feel that in school I was able to practice and improve whatever knowledge I was able to acquire through other mediums.

Thanks Jen. Art isn’t about sticking to the obvious. Art should be free. So go ahead and paint faves green, the sky red or the rivers violet. As long as the art resonates with you, the colors you use will never matter. It’s all expressionism 😀
