Dear Chandra,
Thank you for providing the PDF on English. Speaking and writing correctly is the most important skill needed to succeed in the workplace. A highly intelligent person may have all the requisite knowledge, but if he/she is not able to communicate it clearly, then the person with good communication skills may get far ahead of the others.
Here are some suggestions for readers on improving English:
1. Read the editorial page of newspapers, mark out the words that you don't understand, consult the dictionary, and use the words in your daily language to understand the various contexts in which a word can be used.
2. Subscribe to the magazine "Reader's Digest." It has a section called Word Power that introduces new words and their meanings.
3. If you don't like self-improvement books, read novels written by Robert Ludlum, Frederick Forsyth, and Leon Uris - they are very interesting and well-written.
4. Watch news channels like NDTV, CNBC, and BBC and mirror their style of speaking.
5. English, like any other language, will not improve unless it is spoken. Speak to people whom you think are good in English and ask for their help in forming correct sentences.
6. Do not use complicated, jazzy words just because they are available. The beauty of any language lies in the simplicity with which it is spoken.
Hope you find these suggestions useful. I would welcome any feedback, comments, or suggestions on making this post a success.
Warm regards,

Dear friend,
You're right, as the saying goes, "Practice Makes Perfect." However, I have already posted a thread about spoken English yesterday, which contains the same information as you mentioned. I simply aim to update people who are interested in improving their skills. Once again, thank you very much for encouraging me.
